What banded widths and tyre sizes are best used without having to mess with the arches?

Wheels would be 15" Corsa C ET49 ones.

I had 7inch banded steeliness for a while and had to debit and roll arches to stop rubbing even had 185/50/15 stretched tyres easier way to measure would be fit them and measur the gaps between wheel and arch and suspension and wheel then work out how wide I can go

I thought the same thing..

J refers to the shape of the rim edge
