Default Alright help me to discide on what wheel size i should get for my hatchback ....15 or 16?

I'm gettin to buy some wheels for my ef hatchback and I'm not really sure what size wheels I should get since my car is consider tucking tires on 14's right now.

here is a pic of my car here:


So now you see how low my car is. Well i still want maintian the same ride height as it is now but get either 15's or 16's make it look more tucker.

here are the pics of the wheels I'm planning to get:


so these wheels come either 15 or 16. So help me pick which one!

you think... well i dont want to deal with rubbing either so i was thinking the 16 could cause rubbing with 205/40/16? Also what tire size will best suit for the 15's ?

if you want to use a 16 the correct tire size is a 205/45/16 and for a 15 you want to ru na 195/50/15. If your tuckin you going to rub from time to time no matter what size rim and tire you run
