Default Choosing a tire size for 16"x7" rims...

Well, i'm thinking of these sizes:

205/45/16
205/40/16
or
215/40/16

Which one of these sizes are great for 16"x&7" rims? I know most people run 205/45/16. By the way my car is a DC teg, don't want it to look to thick or too thin. Help. Thanks.

Use the 205/45-16. The outer diameter of the other sizes is too small.
