I'd say 205/50 all the way. It's wider and lower profile.

You need to gat the Yokohama A032R or ADVAN as they're also known so you can match your ADVAN sticker.

Seriously though, 195/50/15 will be a better fit if you're really low. Less likely to scrub.

Also, the Yoko AVID T4 is a T-rated tire. They suck donkey *****. Just ask Chris from B-Troop a.k.a bakedcookies here on H-T.

Try the following since they can be found for cheap:

Pirelli P700Z: 140 treadwear V-speed rating, $40.00 per tire. I have these and although they ride like ****, they grip ******* great.

Falken Azenis: 200 treadwear V-speed rating. Only come in 205/50/15, they're backordered too. Great and only $72.00 per tire.

Dunlop W10 Sport: 200 treadwear V-speed rating and great ride. About $65 per tire

Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position: 200 treadwear Z-speed rating. Pricier, but very ******* nice tire. Some of the best tires I've ridden on.

That's off the top of my head. I'm sure there's other good tires for the price too, but from my experiences selling tires in this same size and driving on them all, i'd say these are your best bets.

Later y0!
