3) Depends on tyre profile
4) Denpends if/how much your car is lowered by

et45. wheel width no more than 6?

if you put 15s on you will have a huge gap between the arch and the wheel. will need lowering 40mm at least.

You could put 16's on with no arche mods really but if ya lowered it, then ya may have a little rubbing depending on what was said above ^
