Will i get away with a 35mm with 195/50 R15 tyres?
The alloys are tsw razors dont know the offset as they were on the car when i bought it. Iv had 3 fat mates in the back and it only caught 1 of the rear arches every now and again.

I think they will be an et40 max of et42.

They will be ok, just dont carry any more mates in the car

just take the wheel off, it'll take about 10mins tops!!

for all you know you could have et35 and with 195/50 tyres on its will scrub like fuk all the time

i think the 35 might well be the offset. If it is, forget lowering! 4 100 is the PCD.

You could buy 45 series tyres that would help lowering it that extra wee bit.
