opinion needed

i'm dropping my car with edilbrock sportline springs... so the opinion i need is witch tire should i get. i'm thinking about a 205 tire so that it would be nice and thin.. but should i get a 215 so it would be more meaty???? which one would look best with the drop....

I'm running on Eibach Sportlines with a 205/40/17 tire and 44mm offset wheel. I've never rubbed a fender, but then I'm not that low either. You might be able to get away with a 215 depending on your wheel offset. I'd say anywhere from 40-45mm offset should be fine, but you might want to get more opinions.

Be prepared for a harsher ride over the bumpy stuff! Dont get me wrong, I love my Sportlines but theyre 20-25% stiffer then stock. The prokit is 10-15% stiffer but a smaller drop.
