id go for some 195/50's or 195/55
or 205/50 if you want a little bit more width

I've got 195/50's on mine.

Dish and uve had no problems with tyre mashing ?
i should of mentioned i have coilovers if that makes any difference

thanks for the help

tyre mashing?!?!?!?

195/50's will be fine, from memory the rewinds are a zero offset 7 inch rim, so at most you will have to roll your guards (fold the lip under, no big deal)

depends what height you run your car at really

get 195/50's on them, fit them and see what happens, it won't be hard to solve any rubbing issues as they should only be slight.

i have 185 pirellies and it is a great tires. but the choice is yours.

what about going 225's x 50 or is that too big?

dont bother going with wider than 195x50 they stretch on the rim and reduce sidewall flex!

185/60 is a good size on a budget, as increased sidewall height makes up for the reduced width, so less sidewall flex. can be picked up cheaper than lower profile tires, too, cause they're pretty taxi spec.
