   Hey guys
   Im about to lower my saxo by 45/50, and I'm wondering about buying some alloys with dimensions 195/45/15 Would i encounter any problems with the wheels rubbing onto the wheel arch?
   
   Regards

   Just bend the arch lip up and underseal it and you should be alright

   Tyres with the 45 profile *may* be ok with little weight in the back, but may rub when you have passengers in the back.
   
   You can roll the arches as mentioned above, just take your time because you may crease the rear quarter if you are heavy handed.
