Any help will be appreciated and would love to know what you think would be the best set up or any tyre recommendations
Thanks

I doubt it they would even fit
Otherwise 205/40/17 Yokohama Prada spec 2
205/40/17 is the common option for cup alloys. R888 used to be avaliable , but not sure if they still are. its going to be a heavy combination

172 wheels 195/50/15 nankang ns 2r
unless your going to try the 300mm discs and brembos, 15s are probably a good bet :) I'm going to be trying the NS2R when the AD08 need replacing as they seem to be getting good reviews and are a fair price

or on 205/50/15 Yokohama a048 or toyo r888

there not the NS2R

Just what I was after! 1 more thing as I've read that 15" wheels are close to the callipers and need to be checked if they will fit. What about 172 alloys think I read somewhere they were called oz f1 will they fit?
 
Maybe the Kumho Ecsta XS Ku36 in 205/50 r15 would be a good choice. Get's good reviews. And there cheap, in Holland at least :) . At about €80/tyre they're €10/tyre cheaper than the Nankang and €40 cheaper than the AD08's.

15s are close to the caliper but I've not seen anyone have issues with the wheel fouling it.
Just beware of the different offsets that have been used on similar looking wheels over the course of the 1*2 range.
 
I've ended up with some 16" Renault turinis and contisport 3's. Proven tyres from my cup wheels and the alloys seem very light! Not too sure of official weight but seem a good combo
