Would it throw my speedo out? want to put either VTS wheels or 205 GTi wheels on my VTR as ive got tyres i want etc in 15s, and they look pretty smart too! Also im lowered 50mm, would i have any issues with scrubbin on either wheels?

Thanks :)

na do it :D might scrub a bit on rear if standard dampers and you rag it theres a little lip inside that rubs i found on 15s just bash it flat and they'll scub on full lock on 195 50 15 tires :) but thats just for parking ;)

Depends on the tyres you use, but as the VTS came with 15s anyway, if you stick to a standard tyre size it'll be fine. 195/45s will be ok I'd imagine down 50mm, 50 profiles scrub a bit but then some types of tyre are only available in this profile

Fit the correct size tyres and you will have no problems

195/45/15 is what you want
