205/45/16 or 205/50/15 will fit clio sport mk2 ph.1?

[redroze]

hey all!

I'm own a ph.1 clio sport 2001.
I went for a workshop, and they told me 205/45/16 or 205/50/15 won't fit my clio. the reason is because the tyre would touch the body on the front when I'll turn the wheels.

I'm lowered 60mm on front and 40mm on rear.

how can I have my tyre wider?

anyone?

i think they may well be right i have 195/45/16 on my ph1 and the fronts get VERY close on full lock, 6mm spacers on the rear as well so for anything over 195 i would guess your looking at 10mm spacers all round if not more. But dont quote me on that one.

I have 195/45/16 on a 60mm drop all round..and it rubs slightly on full lock.
