What size tires?

Alright guy/gals, I have my drop springs, which will drop the car 1.5". The question here is what size tire should put on my car. Im currently running 225/55r16's right now I dont want to replace the rims unless I really need to........the reason cause my rims weight only 18 pounds a piece. Any who, I will be putting on the GPS bodykit also this spring after I drop it. So lemme hear it people.............!!

thanx
chris

well the correct size tire would be a 225/50R16

the tires you have now are taller than stock,making the car about half an inch higher off the ground. and would throw the speedo off a couple mph
