No matter what get low profile, 40s. But the 205 slightly mess's ur speedo. Im gona be droped 2.25 and 2.0 rear by friday, i can tell u how it goes.
^dont listen to him...he only likes them because he has them. plus until you give us some specs of your car no one can really help you with tires until we know what you are looking for or already got

Oh and ask pete, i asked him about the 2" drop, it wont affect if u have 17". For christ sake look at some people here, they have like 3"drop with 18's and they dont rub.
you are a freaking idiot. i never said anything about them being fast now did i? all i am saying what drop are you going to do if any. that way you can get realistic answers. put whatever wheels you like. i could care less if you put some chrome 3 spokes on there that stick out 5 inches its what you like not what everyone else likes. if you want an answer from me just pm me i am more than willing to help but i am done dealing with high school kids that dont know what they are talking about

it doesnt matter how old i am older than you and done with college. i work at a dealership and why does it matter this isnt a site to go back and forth on here...he wanted help i tried to give it to him. like i said before if you need some suggestions just pm me since obviously you wont get the answers you are looking for on here.
the size of the tires depends on your offset ... 215/45/17 would fit perfectly for your speedo, but you would need a lower offset ...
I was able to fit a 225/50/16 (barely) on my 16x7.5 rims +42 offset ... no rubbing issues other than the shredding of my plastic wheel well covers (oh well, weight reduction

If you like the Motegi, get them!!! Put what you like on your car. I have Motegi DP6 and I like them. I am not concerned about weight, just looks by and large. I did have 21545R17 before I put on the 18's, and it looked good with the 1" ProKit drop.

well I was supposed to have my car dropped by now... but b&g coilovers are currently on back order... so i'm thinkin imma just fucc the drop and go turbo. but if i do drop i want it to be I guess around 1.5 - 2 inches... I just don't want my wheels rubbing and want them looking clean and be almost as good if i had stock wheels on... Oh and about the mr7's, I really wanted some devino Nubs' but can't find those on ebay for cheap or in 17's and i really don't wanna go any higher than 17's but no lower lol... anyways i just wanted to know what would be the best tire sizes to match the rims up with.
I spend way too much time on this website

tirerack.com says to go with 215/45/17... as for the drop hieght your looking for chris3k2, eibach sportlines will give you hieght your looking for
yeah i know but i'm not sure if i will want to make it even further or not because i'm also gonna be gettin a bodykit so i might need to lower or make it higher and i'd rather have something adjustable..
