I have just bought a set of 16" alloy wheels with 195/50R/15 Tyres. How do I go about it when putting them on a 1.6s??

Will I need spacers and if so what size??

Any advice would be very, very much welcomed!!! :idea:

With 50 profile tyres you will struggle, go throught the fitting 17`s advice cause you will have a similar rolling radius
good luck
