    I had 185/45's on my Vento, looked awesome but sucked as a daily. If you want a little more comfort, decent lows, nice tuck and zero scrub go for 175/55's...best tyre size choice I ever made. Looks a bit fatter than a 45 though.
    Is your Vento auto or manual?

    i forgot to mention before,

    after i lowered the car it now has a loud knocking/shudder when turn right, i dont think its the bearings but more to do with the suspension or drive shaft or something along those lines.

    is there something i should check when i get my new wheels and figure out how the f*ck im going to jack the car up lol
