New wheels, tyre help

[N.I_Nova]

Right well i am going to stick a set if 15" 4 stud vectra wheels on my corsa b and was wondering could anyone tell me what would be the best tyre size to go for, they currently have 195/65/15's on them which are far to big and rub on the coilovers. So what would be the best size to minimize the risk of rubbing on the coilovers? Cheers Matt

195/45's would be ideal, but im sure 195/50's will do

[JShannon]

heard they look better on novas tho :d

[N.I_Nova]

Depends what your using it for 195/50 would be a little easier to live with with coil overs it would shake your teeth out with 195/45 50s would give you a little more give

Would 195/50 not rub on full lock

[scott.parker]

195/45's are fine, lets face it if you have coilovers your not the sort of person who's worried about comfort! lol

[simonm]

Might a little but won't be on full lock very often so I wouldn't usually worry bout it if ya went to 17s or do it would rub no matter what Tyres were on

Have to agree but just from past experience the novelty of coilies wears off quick when your teeth are falling out lol if ya have to drive it every day maybe I'm just getting old lol

[N.I_Nova]

Yeah the novelty of coilovers really does wear of they are crap, but hey they will do for a while until i get springs and shocks, the helper spring is removed and all to help with clearance but it buffs on about 3/4 lock at the moment lol

the corsa c sxi runs 15's with 185/55r15 pirellis on, i have a set on my nova & they are pretty good.
