of course its driveable..
but really offset and how much you want to roll your fenders and stretch your tires is gonna determine how wide you can go.and how low of course

What do you want the wide tires for? If it's like drag racing, ok. If it's a d.d. then don't go too wide. I had some 16in konigs that rode the grooves in the road really bad. You had to hold on tight or you could lose control.

"Perfect" is completely opinion. Wide tires will have more rubber on the pavement, narrow will have less drag and get better gas mileage, taller tires will net a slightly higher gear ratio, sidewall size will affect ride and handling... It's like comparing apples and oranges, except that it's easy to tell that oranges would totally kick apples' butt. It would be like Chuck Norris versus Erkel.

Not really, if you're running 15 inch wheels, the best size is either 195/50/15 or 205/50 15. Im not making this up, this is coming from people that know their ****.
