hi guys got myself some cavalier expression wheels 15" with 196/60/15s and there catching my inner rear archs so im wondering if 195/45/15 would also rub my inner rear archs or will i need to get a narrower tyre, its lowered 60mm atm but will be on rear coilovers eventually.

45 profile should be fine mate as Cav expression wheels are ET49 offset. I got ET43 offset 6.5J wide wheel and it just scrubbed (lowered 35mm). 60 profile tyres do baloon out a bit which is probably what helped make it scrub.

I have used expressions with 195/45 and 195/50 15's on a Hatch with no rubbing issues.
