50's are too big. the only sizes you should consider are 205/45 and 205/40. search the a/c forum for pics

yes...this is the size that is the closest to the stock tire diameter, it will not mess with the vehicle speed or anything like that.

Go too low youll rub
*IMO If your not low enough 40's will look bad.
Get the 45's because if you dont, its just the same as if your were to have purchased 17 inch rims.
