I had 8j wheels with 20mm spacers all round and was lowered 50mm. Tyres were 175/50/15s so had a bit of stretch to keep the tyre tread inside the arch.  dennis145 liked this post

Posts: 10 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | Re: my punto mk2b  so is sold my red wheels... and bought a nice set of black 16" stilo wheels! the fit perfect. (with 3 mm spacers on the back) also removed the coilover rings on the back, so the car is lower also busy with alfa 147 seats! fitted the front... the back will follow soon, need some modification
