Got a feeling that if the suspension is a little low they rub on the rear radius arms. Think I had a set on mine and needed to take the grinder to them-the radius arms,not the tyres. Might be wrong though and that may have been a different size.

Indeed they do rub on the radius arms, ive just gone 175/50 as they seem much easier to get hold of ( i know the speedo will be out ) not by much tho.
