Does anyone know what the lowest profile is on a set of 15's and where i can find these?

I've just ordered a set of Steffan wheels for my cab

front 14x8 with 195/45/14 continental sports
rear  14x9 with 215/40/14 continental sports

It'll look super-streched and really low
I'll get a pic up as soon as they arrive from Germany

Paul is the guy there, he really knows his stuff and was really helpful when I was looking for wheels and tyres

the car sits pretty low as standard, but I have had it dropped 40mm, so it should look nice when the wheels are on.

Adam, have you sold your old alloys? I know someone that may be interested in buying them??
