Ive got 195-50/15 on 42mm offset fox evo 5's with -40mm GMAX springs and ive never heard it rub.
It slightly scrubbed a bit off the back arch trim with 5 fat people and a full tank but never heard it, just noticed the plastic had been rubbed.
Doubt ud have any probs with wheel scrubbage lowering it 60mm, only problem could be speed bumps if you put a front splitter on.

lol 195/45/15 = 195 wide, 45 thickness and 15 diameter, it has nothing to do with offset

if u dident know ther offset when u bought them, why did u buy them, for all u know they could of been like ET30

i had fox wheels on my old nova, ET45, droped it 30mm no probs, handled like a rollacoaster
