    Both will look good mate, your going to get rubbing with either setup but personally i'd go for 60mm on 15's, with 195/45/15 tyres.

    If your lowering that far, I would strongly recommend lowering on a full kit rather than just lowering springs.

    yer well the money i save on rims from getting 15" wud pay for the full kit, but obviously that will be more comfortable but i think i will go down 40 on 16's or maybe ever 45 on 16's
    i know people who dont get rubbing on 16's who are down 50mm???

    Thats nothing to do with them being 15s, it's more than likely down to the J and ET of the wheel itself!

    if you run 16s you want a 40 profile tyre
    im 50mm on 16s with a 40 profile
    no rubbing

    15s you want a 45 profile
    gaing i know lads who are loooow on 15s with a 45 and no rubbing

    hello ditch.

    if you're going down 40 at the front, go down 40 at the rear

    you cant choose at the back can you cos the torsion bar its on notches? so its just goes down a certain mil to each notch?

    lowering on the notches is not the way to lower on the saxo

    do it properly
