I have the same wheels with a 205/45 and they aren't too bad. I need to roll the front fenders and drop it a bit more, but here is how mine sits with my buddies Miata.

there is no such thing as series 45/50 for tires. this sidewall number is a ratio. 195/50 is the same sidewall height as 215/45 and 245/40

use this. stock size is 195/65-14 = 24" tall tire.

To each his own on the opinion; but if the width of the tire stays the same then the percentage of the side wall does actually come into play. he knew what he was saying he just used a term that most people wouldn't

Nice.
Yeah I think I decided on 205/45's

isn't that what you're on now? 205/45?

your lip is gonna need to be slammed into the ground for you to not have wheel gap w those tires. try 195/50. could be et0 and still never touch the fender.

No it wont, going from GC coils all the way up it just needs an inch drop with that rubber to make the gap go away.

um. no.

his front valence is only an inch off the ground - and he's got more than a few inches of wheel gap w the xxr 16x9's on 205/45. trust me - I test fit my mtechnica's on his car.

I'm running 205/40 on 16x9
But I am gonna test fit the 195/50 to see how it sits before I buy my tires



But on the right is my current set up and on the left is if I went with 205/45 in the front. Looks like the tires itself will raise my car ~.5" and fill in some wheel gap then I can drop my car ~0.5" to have it be the same height as I am now on my current set up.
(Ignore the poke specs)
