Got some 16" Calibra Turbo Wheels for my project. Currently fitted with 205/50/16's.

What Aspect Ratio do you think I should have on the new tyres, for when I fit them to the Corsa?

I'm thinking of going for a 195 section tyre, with a 45 Aspect Ratio... Wat you think?

Car's gonna have a 60mm drop too.

cheers peeps, I didn't know if the 40 profile on a 195 might be a bit small. Want a decent look to the tyre though, so 40 it is.

But then again I didn't know if sticking to a 205 setup might be better (for grip... cos I'm sure 200lb/ft of torque will cause them some trouble), but I dont like the way the tyre's bulge out past the rims so much.
