whats a good tire size for neuspeed race springs??

hey whats up i'm sorry if this has been asked before but i cant find anything when i do a search. i'm planning on getting some 16s in a few months (when i get out of financial troubles). i'm dropped on neuspeed race springs (2.25 in the front and 2.0 in the back) i was wondering if i would rub if i get 215/45 tires? i know for sure 17s would rub with this profile but i'm getting 16s (thats why i didnt find anything on 16s). i'm just scared of rubbing issues with my drop. which would you guys recommend? 205/45, 205/50 or 215/45 or 215/50 any help fron anyone would opitions on this would be great

205/50 is what most ppl with 16's use.... % off wise, closest to stock as you can get on 16's.....

stick with the 205's. unless your about gripping then 215/45.

^i would take his word and go with 205/50 to keep the speedometer accurate as possible. and i doubt 205/50/16 would rub on 2" drop. i have 2" drop on 215/45/17 and it will only rub when i make hard turns or quicky u-turns. but i dont drive agressive daily so that isnt an issue for me. IMO 205/50/16
