Technical tyre question
should fit, depending on the offset of the alloys, but id go for a thinner tyre than 205s, car dont weigh enuf to warrant them that wide. u just wont get a decent grip out of them when it counts. id go for no more than 195/50/15s

was just wondering because i have a fiat tipo td sx with them on that looks like i will have to scrap as i can not even get 150 quid for it,so hopefully they will fit for know
easiest way is to whack em on and drive VERY slowly, ideally with someone else outside the car and look and listen for any signs of rubbing anywhere. check on full lock both ways as well. from then, u will know the answer. even after 1st checks if no rubbing, drive slowly and carefully with ur windows open to listen out for any rubbing on ur trips untill ur 100% sure there is no contact with the tyres.

in case any one wants to know they fit,on the front anyway got to fetch back ones tomorrow,there a littles close to brake flexy where it meets steel pipe on inner wing,so i bought some 3mm spacer's to help should be ok then
The speedo will be out slightly, but not by much. You will notice it under acceleration and your economy will go up
Please dont scrap the Tipo
