   you know that the profile *45* has nothing to do with the size of the rim. but the cross section of the tyre... i guess you got 195/45 as they are pretty common on 15's.

   yes i know that but if for some strange reason i was running a 50 profile then this would make a differance on the overall circumfrence of the wheel/tyre...........just thought it was worth mentioning in the question.....
   just want to know if they will catch thats all????

   i wouldnt see it being a problem as ive seen pics of people running 17's on sax's.
   that starts to make hell of a difference and aslong as its 15's you shoudl be ok to run a good 8" without too much hassle ...
   
   pics once done
