145/50/16??
205/50/16 for 7 inch wide and 225/45/16 for 8 inch wide i believe...
unless there is a huge mismatch between tyre width and wheel width its not 'bodged' on, that's the wrong way to put it (of course 145 wide...haha that would be bodged yeh

no no no!
front 205/50/16
rear 225/45/16
these tyre sizes keep the diameter of the wheel to with in .0 something of a percent to an original 15 inch bbs wheel
