i had 16x7 slips with 205/45/16 tires and rubbed a little bit, my car was dropped '2 in front and 1.75 in rear.

looked really good

dont get tires that are too thin, i bought brand new tires (205/40/16) and i regret buying them, i would just stick with 45

hope this helps

EDIT: i found a picture when i had white slips, with 205/45/16

hhmmm am i the only one that the cops never give me tickets or even get pulled over for that matter

i would just stick with 1.75 drop, but it would look weird since tegs are known for having the front lifted more than the rear with same size coilovers/springs. :shrugs:

try looking for a 1.75 in front and 1 inch in the rear?

Go for H&R sport/racing. Good brand, nice springs.

It's too small. That's the size for older Civics. It will throw off your speedometer and odometer, and make your car look like a low rider. Stick with 205/45-16 or 215/45-16.
