VTS standard tyre dimension is 195/45/15. Am I correct in saying that the middle dimension (profile of the tyre) is flexible. I.e i can fit 195/60/15 tyres on them? I'm 99% sure this is the case because this just symbolises the hight of the wall, but I need that extra 1%.

I'll add that 1%. It's just the profile.

60's will be ridiculous. You might get away with 50's if you're standard height but even they rub like hell if you're lowered at all.

Cheerz boys. Jobs a good'n

Edit: Also, will there be any adjusting required to fit VTS wheels on a standard VTR? I'm sure the physical shape of the cars are exactly the same, but just to be completely sure.

no chance, doubt you'll even get them in the arch let alone turn without rubbing

Ill take that as a "Yeah buddy, they will fit nice and easy"

They will go on the wheel no problem. I've got vts wheels and they had 50's on the rear, changed them the next day to 45's because they rubbed with the car being unloaded.

60's won't go on. And yes, vts alloys are a direct swap for vtr's.......with the right tyres.

Aye, I'm getting 195/45/15. Most I'd go up will be 50 profile for higher profile.

50's are ok and cheaper

stick to 45 profile --you get them pretty cheap anyway
