Nope. You reading those numbers from the tyre?? If so, the 45 is the height of the tyre wall as a percentage of the width, in this case 195.

will it be on every wheel if so is there an easy wheel to take off or are they all the same ? ie is it easier to take off the rears rather than the fronts ?

might not even be on the wheels, i know that some TSW wheels dont have the et stamped on it and you have to measure it yourself & that is a real pain in the arse
