actually there are more detailed ones, but i found out wat i needed that et 38 15 inches tyres will only stick 5mm out more from et49 inches. therefore the width of the rim matters a lot when lowering a car

I've found that linke quite useful before, and the tyre profile calculator one -

Useful for finding similar sized tyres with bigger wheels.

Hi, can anybody help me? I'm wanting to go from the standard Corsa B SXi rims to these in the 15" option
http://www.tsw-wheels.co.uk/?section=15&wheel_id=36
And I'm unsure on how to use the calulator provided by jurgen87, I'm wanting either a 35mm drop or a 50mm drop if that's any help
