I've used a couple of different brand tyre's and never had any dramas using 205's with RS alloys on my car.......
Agreed they look better but the 185's I have also used were reliable and a bit cheaper.....
Cheers Drew.........

The tyres are only rubbing on the guards so I might either speak to my local panel shop or give it a go fixing the issue spots myself cheers

You can get mobile guard rolling companies. Ive never used them though so can't comment on the work.

How did you go with the paint? Did it crack at all?
 
I have a car that could do with the guards rolled but I'm worried about taking the risk on damaging the paintwork.

I had my guards rolled and the dude used a heat gun to warm the paint to stop it cracking and worked great.

Paint was fine without heat treatment.
