That said, with rolled fenders you can slam that car. Camber angle will take care of the rest.

205/50/16 will look slightly stretched and still read correctly. 225/45/16 will look the business.

With that offset and wheel width, 225/50 won't fit without a visible flaring of the fender. Think custom bodywork.
Look into 245/35/16 Toyo T1-R. Will be easier to fit. You could put the 225/45/16 or 225/40/16 on the front.

J, do you think i'd be better off stepping up to a 17" for this purpose?
Just means i'll have to dish out some more $$ for a set of Simmons.
