if the offset of the wheels is between 45 and 49, you'll have no trouble. i had 16s -60mm and no scrubbing. just be certain they are right for the car

im a typical local pikey thieving scum bag walking past your car, you have 6x9s, im going to wonder what else is in there, probably have a look after busting a window or door. Or maybe its just me.

Tighten a peice of cloth/velvet across the top off the parcel shelf, or get a stealth shelf, about £70-80 iirc, or make one yourself
