this might be an easy question but ive searched and havnt seemed to find what i was looking for, ive got a set of the sportmax 002, 15x8 0 offset, i run coilovers and the fenders will be rolled/flaired, my question is what size tire should i run, i love the look of the streched tire on the rim and ive heard that i should run 205/50/15 but when i look up info on those tires it says only use on rims up to 6.5, anyway any help would be great seeings i would like to get these on and rolling.

205/50/15Remember, this car is slammed. If you dont want to go that low run 205/55/15

i say 205/55.... 205/50s are too small, it would mess your speedo too much
