Default Quick noob question.

right now I have 195 60 15 on my 93 prelude s. according to my cars sticker its 185 70 14 recommended stock size, and a topic in prelude zone says stock size is 205 55 15...wtf is it then... anyways Idk if my car has been previously lowered, looks as if.. but I was thinking will 205 50 16 get rid of the space between fender and the top of the tire as well as bring my ride height down a bit? and with the addition of the 16" will it fill up the wheel area more? sorry for the newbie explanation of things haha.

the 205/50R16 and the 205/55R15 are within 0.2" of one another in terms of overall diameter, so there should be no visible difference in the gap above the tire. Best bet is to get lowering springs instead of increasing tire diameter to shrink the gap
