    I recently replaced my alloys with some from another car, but i want to swap the tyres over as the rubber on my old wheels was much newer.

    trouble is they are different sizes.

    both sets of alloys are 15". the tyres coming off are 205/45R15 and the tyres i want to put on are 195/45R15 will these fit ok?

    Cheers Ben

    they'll fit, but they will be slightly too low profile (195/50/15 is correct) so your speedo will read slightly low
