since I've lowered my car 60mm the wheels have decided they want to rub on the arches :evil: I've cut the lip off and it's almost stopped it but when I really give it some into a corner it rubs. I've got 6'5 x 15 compmotive mo's (et49) with 195/50/15 tyres. my question is, what is the lowest profile I can get in 15"?

thanks guys :? I'm pretty sure it's because of my 50 profile tyres. I've just got a quote for ?50 each including fitting etc for some fulda extremo's. Are they any good?

Fuldas are economy tyres so I'm told

Try kwik fit - they do a centaurs for ?45 - theyre economy again but ppretty good in my experience - they were 195/50 15's mind but I'm pos they had a set of 45's at the same price...
