        To my defense, It was my first ever mechanical procedure, and I managed to take the head off, completely rebuild the head (didn't get it pressure checked fail)

        Then I put it all back together and it ran, but the head was cracked.

              205/50 isn't bad for a low car, imo

              My friend has 205/50 on his ix weaves and it looks good

                225/50 would be the best I think.

                    Don't. Steven has those, they look retarded. Your oil pan will be on the ground before it's low enough to actually look good. He has like two inches of clearance and an inch of wheel gap between the top of the tire and bottom of the front fender.

                      Agreed, that looks like a great daily with a fresh swap from Eric. 450/650 would be just dandy.

                        Stevens wheels are 15x9 tho.


                        So he is stretching the sidewall more making the profile even lower.

                          That's true, but either way the profile is just too short. And they're only 8.5 up front, another 1.5 inches isn't gonna lower the overall diameter all that much. 205/50/15 will be at least an inch too short whether it's on a 7j or 10j wheel.

                            So you think 215s or 225's are more fitting?

                              Absolutely. It'd look 100x better. Just make sure whatever you get will fit at the height you want to be at. 7" et15 isn't all that aggressive so you should be fine on a 215, not quite sure about a 225 but meatier would look better.
