well im running a 40 series tire on my 17s and i got a 1.75-2" in drop and i think it looks fine. but on 15s i would do the lowest 45 series, but prolly 50series would look the best.

yeah i mean cant really compare 15's to 17's that a extra 2 inches ya know. i wanna do a nice tire that is the widest to fit on the rim and not a huge sidewall like the stock tires...

and i use that tire cal. and i have no clue whats going on. lol

civic_04 is an unknown quantity at this point
I was in a similar situation about a week ago with my stock 04 tires too. I had 195/60/15, and I went with 205/50/15 for my new tires.
