I run 195/50/15 on mine without any hassle. Anything more and you're asking for problems.

As said, best bet is 195/45 or 195/50 if you're on a tight budget.

6j tyres on 5.5j rims
That doesn't make any sense, you can't get "6j" tyres...


driver its you car then.they shouldnt do
Novas had quite big tolerances so its possible a tyre could be fine on one car, and rub on another. Not to mention offsets may vary slightly between different wheels.

on the side of my tyres it says 195/60/14 then underneath for 6j wheels or words to that effect
