Default Tire Size Help - Civic/CRX (EF)

I'm installing 15" x 7 wide alloys on my 1991 CRX. The wheels are + 44 offset and car is lowered 2.0" front and 1.8" rear. The original tire size is 185/60R-14 at 7.4" wide and 22.6" in dia.

I'm looking at the following sizes but unsure about rubbing. I'm not to concerned with the 3/4" extra dia either.

195/55R-15 8.0" wide 23.3" dia
195/50R-15 7.8" wide 22.7" dia
205/50R-15 8.3" wide 23.1 dia
205/45R-15 8.1" wide 22.2 dia
215/45R-15 8.3" wide 22.6 dia


I'm wondering if anyone is running any of these sizes on a 1988 - 1991 Civic/CRX. What offset rim are you running, how much is the car lowered and is their tire contact inside and out with the body at any time.

Will an 8.3" wide tire fit with all suspension geometry inline
