195/50/r15 with 55mm lowering springs

[Burger]

I currently have my k11 lowered on the 55mm lowering springs provided by MPH i have 195/45/15 tryes on at the minute.

i just wondering if anyone uses 195/50/15 with these springs and have any problems because i have the chance for 4 brand new tyres with the 50 profile for 50 quid.

would 5mm really make that much difference? I dont get any at the minute and i do drive it really hard. I seem to go through alot of tyres due to the camber wearing the inside edge of the tyres.

the difference is, 5% of 195mm is,nt it burger ? (10mm), and have you increased the camber ?

the aspect ratio is a percentage of the width robb, iirc (50% of 195mm)
