Gutted didn't realise I was going to have to roll arches that's crap. Do they look good when on either cars I have 195 40 on the mondeo alloys that are on now so will they fit the cosworth ones? Also will 205 45 16 be worse or would I get away with it? Cheers guys any pics? And are any of urs lowered?

.

Mate has 195/45/16 on his and it rubs with no one in the back, and to be honest it drives shit, it bump steers, when coming off a round about or bend you get none of the natural steering straightening you have to physically steer it back.

He's getting rid of them.
