Got a set of 16'' alloys for my car today fronts ok but the back rubs when i go over bumps.
the tyres on it now are 205/65/16's but if i were to go to 195/45/16's would they be okay?
Cheers

195/45/16's work well in regards to not catching. although some of that is down to the offset of the wheels aswell.

jeez... thats a low offset. 195/45 will help. doubt the rubbing will stop alltogether. Plus the cops wont be too keen on them either

What do you mean?
"Legally- the wheels can stick out from the arch up to or equal to 2 inches"
any idea what the spec of the wheels are? offset/width?

Unless it says on the wheels what the offset is then i got no idea but if they can legally stick out up to 2 inches then i think im sorted
