i'm deciding whether to get 15 or 16in. i wont mind the 15 in but i dont want the tire to fat. anyone have a pic of a 15in wheel with maybe a 195/50 or 205/50 series tire. would the 205 tire be taller?

205/R15 wont be taller, they'll be wider. You cam find 205/50/R15 tires.
Which rims are you going to get? SI's,GSR's?

205/50 should be a little taller. correct me if im wrong but
50% of 205mm is 102.5mm.
50% of 195mm is 97.5mm.
i'm thinking of bronze rota slipstreams. 15in

205 - width
50 - thickness
15 - size of rim?

good question. the middle number (i.e: 50,45,40) is not a fixed value. it is a percent. so for what you say, the tire height would be 50% of the length, 205mm.

are you sure? 50% of 205 would be 102.5mm, thats about 10 cm thats pretty thick! I always thought it was a fixed # like 35mm, 45mm, or 50mm. well thats just my .02

From personal experience 16" rims look a ton better than 15".

195/50/15's might be hard to get. probably easier to get 195/55/15's which are the original size on the civic si's
