I'm running OZ SL
front is ET45 17*7 with 225/45/17
rear is ET48 17*8 with 245/40/17.

My car is lowered and I have slight rubbing problem with front.
Rear rubs too but it's very minor.
I'm gonna change front tires but I am torn between
215/45/17 and 205/50/17. I'm going to lower my car little more(to attain 1/2 finger gap all around)

Which size I should go with? 215/45/17 or 205/50/17?
BTW I'm using S-03

TIA!!

start with an aggressive street alingment...
before, mine rubbed both front and back even on pretty small bumps-
after, it rubs only if i hit a good sized bump- not very often.
mine is dropped about 1" on eibachs
