they will fit fine. but what size? 16's 17's? 17's will take up to 215/45 but 205/45 run a lot nicer ;)

yes 16's even if you are lowerered can still go 50 profile if you want soft ride ;)
i like 45 profile as too much sidewall ruins look of rims :P

wish you had put on here looking for rims as mine are going with brand new 205/45/16 tyres on.

ive used both 205/50/16s and 205/55/16s on my 4th gen and its lowered on konis and eibachs.

205 55 16's are so much cheaper than 205 50 16's nearly half the price :shock: but the 205 55's will raise your ride height a bit
