Just bought some merc rims 16inch7j along with 15mm wheel adaptors. The car is lowered to the limit on ap coilovers the car with standard alloys sits with the tyres just in the arches. Has anyone any experience with what tyres im going to need on the merc rims eg. Stretch fit tyres. To prevent scrubbage on the arches etc. Thanks in advance danny.

For anyone to hazard a guess they are going to need to know the ET of the merc wheels (and ideally your current ones as well)

Dont know the exact Et but a guy in a performane shop told me the rims are within the allowance of recomended et for the fabia if this helps in the mean time i will try find oit the exact et n post thanks in advance.

I believe the et is 37 after sum research on the web havnt gt access to look at the rims yet

see if this helps - http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

You have got stud adaptors haven't you? 5x112 to 5x100

15mm adapters on an ET37 will bring you down to ET22.

This will bring the outer edge of the wheel/tyre out 22mm.

Arch rolling time?

yes mate got the correct stud adaptors to suit, may have to adjust coilovers to suit then, thanks people

how wide are the wheels??

maybe try some 195/45/16's
