it doesnt matter what rims you have. tires size maybe but rims, no... it depends on what your looking for. looks, performance? you like it slammed? just looking to kill the gap? how much are you willing to scarifice? how much are you looking to spend. i've always said go with a 2.25" drop with no kit and 1.75" drop with a kit

Slam it a tire no larger than 205/55. Leave no trace of wheel gap.

Example:

I still gotta mess around with it. I can go about 3/4 of an inch lower all around but it wouldn't be practical.... so I'm adding another 1/2 in the front instead.






The rears are tucked. To the right corner of this picture is my space left from camber. It's even tighter on the opposite side.
