    Most ran either 40 or 45's, personally I preferred 45's, looked better and have a slightly better ride. The 40's would give you better performance, but it's all tiny margins.

    195/45/16.

    That's an odd size Chris

    I have always ran 195/45/16 on the punto, lowered 70mm with no rubbing. Have used 205/50/16 and 205/45/16 on the coupe.
