I know the normal tyre size but has anyone put a lower profile tyre on? If so what size and have you got pictures of what it is like on the car, thanks!

205/50 is about as small as you want to go. Any smaller and they look lost in the arches.

What do you mean by lost in the arches?

Using smaller tyres will also affect your gearing
