if your slammed and you want the wider tire and your willing to roll your fenders then get 205/50/15's. It really depends on how low you go? people go with the 195/50/15's becuz they rub less than 205/50's. I have drag dr-16s in 15s with a 40 offset with 205/50's dropped a little more than 2inches.

If you're willing to roll your fenders I would go with the 205/50/15s. I'm on a set of konig heliums with a 40mm offset and 3-4" drop and a camber kit . If you try to get your camber neutrel you'll rub constantly, but after I rolled the fenders with a baseball bat I rarely ever rub. The fitment is much nicer with 205's

195/50/15. It will look better than a 205 on that size rim.

205/50/15s If you have the correct offset, you shouldn't rub.
