   nope it will on full lock but very much doudt it will on the back as i ran 205/40/r16 on the rear off mine and im pretty lower than 40mm and only rubbed on very bumpy roads with 1/2people in the back..
   
   personly would run 195/40/r16 then you dont get that much rubbing.

   Yes they are 15's! Also they are silver as standard so you will have to get a set sprayed. White wheels on blue looks quality have a look in the pictures section!

    Im down 40mm on 16's. As long as you get 195/40/16 tyres then you will have no problems.
