If you want the wheels to stick out, they're going to rub when the car's lowered, aren't they!

Think about this logically!

i just spoke to someone at an alloy shop which have these wheels he said i will have plenty of room to lower with 195/45 tyres something like -65mm but i was only looking to go -40/45mm i was looking for this look
i thnk his car is lowered -40mm

it might be ok but to be safe i'd get 7" on the front and 8" on the back
