What tyre size?

[sparkywig]

I want to change the stock 15" wheels to a set of BRM's I've just bought.
However, my van has been lowered and it was a struggle to get the rear wheels off.
So I was wondering what size tyres do you have on your lowered vans?
And do you have problems with removing them?

Thanks for your replies in advance

I did think about dropping the rear shock to help fitting.
But before starting I was wondering how wide the tyre could be before fouling the arch.
The tyres I've got are 195/60 15.
Has anyone had problems?

I'm sure I read somewhere that anything wider than a 175 will be a problem with BRMs,
are yours wide 5 or 5x112?

They're wide 5 BRM's.
Came off a Beetle, so the fronts are 165/55 and the rears 195/60.
I think the tyres might be for sale soon.
