na they shouldn't rub if your on 195/45/15 tyres, you would need to be alot lower then 40mm for it to rub. it prob start rubbing around 60mm. but even that would probably be ok. Ask the seller if them rims will fit, I'm not sure bout them, but look like they should. but always ask!

thanks :D

15's and 40m drop is no problem

Not sure about 6N2 but I got 15s on and dropped 40mm and mine scrub on full lock on my 6N.

I think my ET is 38 or something like that

wheel spacers would solve that tho wouldnt they?

Stretched tyres IMHO :D

Saves more work in the future

iv got 195 50 15 on mine and I'm alot lower than 60mm more like 70 front and 80 rear and i get no rubbing at all

I've got a 6n running 15's by 7j, 195/45/ tyre dropped around 100 front and 90 back. Theres no rubbing what so ever, never. Get coilovers as they're far more adjustable, and 40m springs simply dont go low enough. Look for around a 37et wheel to stay safe. And dont get those wheels on the ebay link, they will look poo. Getsome second hand dish!

think I'm going for the deep dish from rimstyle or some rials from the forums, not sure either will look smart imo
