they will look a bit like tractor tyres compared to 45 profiles but the actual height difference of the car would be minimal.

should be fine mate, no point buying new 45's if the 50's on the wheels are new anyway. just replace them with 45's when they wear out smileys/smiley4.gif

That height increase with a 50 profile compared with a 45 will be about 10mm depending on on the pressure in the tyres man. but your speedo will be a little more accurate.
