Closest would be 225/60/16.

That's a perfect size but just checked and my offset will be out... 48mm on the XV and 30mm on this rim which pushes me out 18mm... Is that even legal?

It'll look cool?... But, dunno about the legalities in Qld but in NSW the tyre cannot protrude past the body work. You might be lucky, stock subies have a lot of room in the guards. Any scrubbing or rubbing is unlikely. Best to let the tyre shop advise.

I've got enough clearance for the extra 18mm offset, tyre shop guy even suggested I go up a size as well... Not sure about that, might try it on the day... He may just be upselling me...

Worked out well pricewise, the tyres are cheaper as are the rims!
