yup i am indeed with 195,45,16 tyres if that helps
i get rubbing with 3 people in the car, but now the tyres are wearing down and the car is sitting even lower every bump i hit the tyre is catching the inside of the arch, and my exhaust box hits every speedbump :lol:

o and its dropped on Spax RSX coil-overs
