40mm shouldn't be a prob. i think 60mm should be ok if you take out a couple of bolts from the rear arches.

Depends on tyre size also, smaller the better obviously!

What size are they?

6x15" Ian, in original post mate.

Yeay 40-50mm should be fine without any work, 60mm should be obtainable but you may need to do a little work on the rear arches.
