undecided tire sizes

[civic_tuner4]

I'm thinking about downgrading from 17's to 16's, and i can't decide on tire sizes. 5th gen dx coupe, i know 205/40r16 is more accurate to stock size, but i like the look of 205/45r16. she is lowered 1.8 front and 1.6 rear. let me know what you guys think.

do you live in an area with hard winters and many pot hole filled roads? I'd go 205/50/16's I rock my wheels year round... Those size tires saved my ass many times. But 45 isn't much smaller then 50.

yeah 205/45/16s are the way 2 go

With the amount you're lowered, 205/45/16's should do you well.
