Re: 215/50-16
205/55R16 is already close on my 2002 civic that is lowered.
why would you want to do that?
your speedo will be off by a large amount too, wait for the speeding tickets.

185-65-14 vs 205-55-16
+6% speedometer error
Google 'tire size calculator' and check/compare numbers
205-50-16 would be much closer, +2.6% error

title says 215-50-16. Durrr. I think I just ran with what you typed instead of OPs want.
That looks like a +4.2% speedo error over stock
