I would go for 45s personally, look a bit better and they'll cause you less problems while the car is a bit lower.

i prefer 50's to 45's...fill the arches better and the tyres are much cheaper too.
Get paradas too...worth every penny in the summer tbh!

it is amazing how much difference that 5% makes! They are more progressive in letting go when being pushed as well, whereas the 45's tend to snap out and you have less time to adjust.

The wheels I borrowed whilst the SRi's were being refurbished had 185/60/14 ones of these tyres on, I didn't think they were worth shouting about tbh. Especially in the wet. I could barely pull away calmly without it trying to spin
