195, 205, or 215??

ok so looking at getting a set of 16" wheels and was wandering about the tire size i have a book that compares overall tire sizes with oem specs and it suggest a 215/45/16, ive looked at tirerack.com and they suggest a 205/45/16 and i ve seen ppl run a 195. so what are you guys with rims running? 16" that is? i was thinking 205/50/16?

Whats the offset of the wheels? It depends on what you want.
My SSR's are +35mm.... I was worried that the wheel offset was too high, so I decided on wider tires.

I went 215/40/16's. IMO, my cars stance is awesome with a 35mm offset.

215/45's are too big for 16's on the Fit. 215/40's or 205/45's.

They arent really close up. Gives you an idea. Remember all tires are different.
These are Nexan N3000's. Wheels are 16x7 +35mm.

What is the tire width as well. That will make the difference in choice if you want the wheel stretched or not.
