Default what tire size you using?

what tire size you using on your 16inch rims? I got 205/45/16 Dunlop FM901 on mine, and they look too bulky/big...should I go 205/40? Anyone got pix of how it looks with 205/40 would be of great help. Thanks in advance.

different tire brands with the same aspect ratio can look DRASTICALLY different from brand to brand...

I used to run dunlops on my car that looked lower profile than a set of lower profile goodyears I had.

you shouldn't really resize your tires based on asthetics but I guess it wouldn't hurt anything...

Are your tires all season or sport tires?

I'm running sports tires...the dunlop fm901. Before that I had Toyo proxy fz24 or something like that. I guess on my future tires, I'll try 205/40 just to see how it looks on my hatch. Thanks a lot guys.

That's the apparent problem, nobody bothered to keep reading to notice he stated 16" rims.
