Yup with tyre size 195/40 or 195/45. Bigger than 195 then expect some rubbin on full lock.

Go with 195/40 mate.

is it true that changing to 16s from 13" steel wheels wil affect my speedo reading?

Yeah. From 14's with 185/55 I had to go to 15's with 195/45's to have no trouble. NOt sure if theres a tyre that can fit 16's which wont effect it. they would have to be very low profile though

195/40/16 for reference

I have 17s on my mark 5. However I admit they're far to big and I am going to be downgrading to 16s soon.

45s on 16s will rub. I had them on my old RX2s then i changed to 40s and all is well
