Default 16" slipstreams, what size tires? for a budget

I'm in bad need of new tires, i'm going to replace 17's with 16's. and since it seems I cant find someone with a pair of 16" slips w/ tires it seems I am going to have to buy rims and then tires from a shop. My car is lowered, just wondering what a good, inexpensive daily driving tire would be good for 16" slipstreams? What sizes, rims, etc. And when I mean inexpensive, I mean def below 100 per tire. Less the better. I just need something with acceptable traction, good milage length, and a good price. Opinions are greatly appreciated, and if you have slipstreams with good shaped tires that you want to sell, get AHOLD Of me asap. Thanks all!

you can get real good tires for about 90 bucks or less for 16s.

Falken Ziex 512's, Falken 451's...are about 87 bucks.

you can also get kuhmo ectsa or supras for around the same price.

its only dunlop sp9000's and tires liek that that will cost over 100.

I emailed ya! Check your mail. Are 205/45/16 the ideal size? If I were to go CHEAP, how CHEAP could I go with tires? Also, if I buy tires apart from the rims, who will mount them for me? Will tire shops do this or will they only do it with their rims/tires?
