I'd say about 40-50 on the front, but only 30 on the back.

Does it have any audio in the boot at all?

Yea, I based my guess on my car, although you have slighter bigger profile tyres, making it look even higher.

No they are 45's, but the width is 195, so 45% of 195 is obviously smaller than 45% of 205.

If you want it to just cover the tyre, use 60mm springs.
