whats the ET on your alloys?

195/45's shouldn't rub if your lowered 60mm, what ET are your wheels? Also if your car lowered 60mm and you put 165/50's on your wheels may look a little lost in the arch due to the massive stretch and low profile of the tyres.

Could go 175/50-15

i was in the same boat as u last week mate and can second what DJC said after getin very very confuzed i went for 195/45 (60mm drop allso) i didnt think it would make a differnce but it is 100% sorted out my rubing probz that i had wit 195/50s.

u get a bit of a arch gap back wit 195/45s at 60mm so id say dont go for anything els unless u go lower.

165/50s are tiny as well. So if the cars not that low then the might look a bit daft.
