best Tyre size for corsa b on 15s. was thinking 195/45/15 or 195/50/15. is they much of a difference between them other than cost?

195/45 if lowered. The 50 side profiles look far too big anyway, so best paying the extra for the looks alone.

I always used 50's on my corsas.

45's seems to rigid, no movement in the sidewall, didnt help with understeer.

I found the 50's much better for handling

Always preferred a 50 rather than a 45,
Rode better, handles better and even looked better IMO.
