I wouldnt bother going euro look on 7j rims, I dont think it would suit.
If you want euro look, then you really need to got for 8j or wider, if you go for 9j you have to have stretched tyres just to make them fit in the arch!

id agree you deffo need wider wheels to achieve the look properly
some 7.5s may just get away with it like my borbet As but idealy 8 or 9s are needed
with 215 tyres id say but thats dependant on how wide ya wheels are anyway

the closest youll get to euro look on 15in wheels are 195 45 15 tyres, but they wont start to look streached untill you go to a 7.5 or 8in rim, and will look lost in the arches.
