Default optimal tire size for a 16in wheel on a 5th gen accord

Just got some silver 16x7in RS Limited Concept Pro wheels for my 97 SE and need tires. Also just bought d2 coilovers so the ride will be lowered until i get 1 finger around.
What tire size would be best? i want the best of both worlds, looks and preformance...
Here are some of my possibilities (and there arent many 215 width tires that I can afford) :
- 205/40/16
- 205/45/16
- 205/50/16
- 225/45/16
- 225/50/16
- 225/55/16

And what tires do you guys like... i want a really sticky tire, but it also needs to last a while and be able to handle the rain. basically eliminating summer tires...
Looking at the pirelli pzero nero m+s all seasons, what do you guys think? suggestions?

Thanks!
- Drew

225/45/16 would look sick. Nice and wide
