what size boots does your nova wear?

i have dropped mine by 60mm and have got some cav sri fan alloys, but need to get tyres, just not sure what size.

my xr2i used to run 195-45's.
would these be about right?

cheers

195/45's are your best bet, as 50's are more likely to rub. 45's should be fine.

I have found 14s to be the best size I use 185 55 14 goodyear eagle f1's all around and it feels better than on 15's, 16's or 17's.
