    for 100% no rubbing - 14 inch alloys 175 or 185 rubber
    must be 49mm offset (45 might work on 5 or 5.5 inch wide rims)

    15s with 195 45 15 rubber will go on and usualy not cause arch problems - unless its really lowered lots or u carry lots of weight.

    sum have got 16s on with 195 40 16 rubber and not had issues

    the real important thing is to stick to 49mm offset and less than 6 inch wide.

    best wheels for no rubbing is the gte/gsi 14" alloy. i had my car lowered 60mm with 3 people in the back and it still didnt rub.

    now i have a set of speedline's with 195/45/16 tyres on and they very rarely catch.
