Hi mates..I have a 5 door hatchback..I am wondering to lower it like 1.2 inches..1.4 inch maximum. Will the mini cooper 17x7 et 48 wheel rub with 205/45 tire?

Likely to have minor rubbing there - it will be close and depend on your drop.

what do you mean help? I dont see a question?

Are you asking which of those two you should go with? That would be a personal preference. If you like the way 15s look go with that, if you like the way 16s look go with that. I would not go wider than 195 on a 7, not saying you CANT go wider, that is only my preference

I disagree with WeeYari, I have run 45/50 on 15s 40/45/55 on 16s without issue. The shorter the sidewall the lower you will be to the ground and give the harsher the ride. Thicker side walls are usually more cushy.

Its going to come down to your wheel preference. Find the wheel you want and then find a tire to match.

Think of what you want out of your new tire/wheel setup like weight, performance, looks, stance, handling, etc thats a good way to start

Precisely. If you go with lower profile sidewalls then invest in better shocks/struts. Your ride will be harsh. Theirs always a domino effect when you start changing your cars set up from stock specs. Been doing this for almost 33 years now, I see all kinds of messed up upgrades or set ups still.

He's only dropping 1" so with a 195/50/15 or 205/40/16 it would almost be pointless if an objective is to reduce wheel gap.

This was me when I had 195/50/16s dropped 1.5". Wheel offset is +42 with 10mm spacers in the rear. Essentially +42 in the front, +32 in the rear.

That is why I got coilovers and tires with a massive sidewall. I get sensational handling and tires with a gigantic sidewall to protect my wheels. Couple that with the stock seats and while I hear every bump I don't feel anything.

Hello everyone,
I have a question/concern.....
I put my OEM Vitz RS rims [16x6, ET51] with 205/50/16 on my wife 07 ncp92r 4 door sedan. The tire now rubs on the front shock and chassis with the steering at full lock. I installed a 5mm spacer and it still does the same. I observed that the sedan has a much, much smaller turning radius than my 07 Vitz RS. This combination was never a problem on my car. I am now using her 15x7 ET42 205/50/15 which gave no problems on either car.
Is it normal for the 16x6 ET51 with 205/50/16 to have fitment issues on the sedans????
What can be done to rectify the fitment issues without future problems????
Buying new wheel/tire combos for either car is not an option but if we have to switch back we will both be disappointed.
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Thank you.
