8in wide with +15 offset, ok on EK Hatch?

[subie]

guys,

edited: i have another question, with the 8in wide with +15 offset, will this fit EK hatch ok? i'm going to run 195/45 tyres, and going to lower about 50-60mm, all guards will be rolled.

anything else need to be done?

what would be the best tyres size or recommended size for 16s to suit EK hatch?

what would be the recommended profile size if running 195 on 16s?

Cheers

195 45 16

8in

For 8inch 195/45 will look nicer but at the expense of comfort.

195/50 or 205/45,50 wont be as harsh

This site you can see how each size looks as desired wheel size

16x8 you should run 205/40/16

this or a 205/40 to keep close to stock diameter. 205/45 also works but speedo off like 2% iirc. 215/45 would give dat nice fat look but can't sack it without yankin

195/45/16 bit more common and can get nicer tyres, i found it hard to find tyres in 205/40 but that might just be me

Thanks for all the info and pics guys, real great helps here,

might go for 195/45/16 for couple of reasons, i have +15 offset and gonna run it on EK hatch, a bit of stretch tyres would suit better. also, as mentioned above, 195/45/16 is more common and could be cheaper :)

I recall the low-midrange 195/45/16 tyres like sailun atrezzo ZS+, hero milanza hz1 were around 100-110 fitted. KU31 were somewhere around 150. These prices from few months ago in melb. Might give you a ballpark figure

16 x 8 +15 is easy. only need a guard roll. no camber kits or anything.

Stiff suspension set up will help around corners

15x8.25 +0 195's with rear camber kit, fronts natural camber.

In other words, 8+15 will be easy. Going by the top picture. 8+0 will be around 1.6cm more pushed in, so you'll be fine. Fronts? Do not know.

Thanks guys
