Default Best Tires for 16X7 Spoon Rims

I just ordered some 16X7 inch spoon wheels. My car is not lowered at all. I was wondering what tire should I get for that great look that all of you guys have (not to thick not to thin), while still maintaining good performance. What do all of you have? Pics if you could.
Thanks

No pics, but I strongly recommend Dunlop SP 9000s, I have them on my 16" Spoons.

Azenis and Toyo T1S are not bad at all. Azenis will work better on drag but I like Toyos on rain better. I think Toyo T1S will be best on rain.

Yokohama A-520's 205/45/16. A little loud when the tread wears down but sticky enough for the twisties.

Aziens are my next choice

anyone with experiance/thoughts about the 225/40/16 A520's? [225/40R1685V 900 rev/mile] it has the exact same rev/mile as the OE 15" 010's so the gearing will not change, just the weight.

there is no centre cap on your spoons in that pic correct? (b/c i just recied a set of 16' te-37's and doubt i will get a centre cap)

also, how much space is between the rubber and fender? (i'm debating how much to drop my car)

no center cap, I just painted the center flat black...I have approx 1" drop and there's about two fingers, maybe less from tire to fender
