Another Tires Question...

Gonna get a new set of tires today, already decided on RE-01Rs, currently at stock ride height but I will more than likely put new springs on this summer. My question is should I get 195/50/15 or 205/50/15 if I will either lower the car on Swift or Progress Springs. I am wondering how the car will look on stock ride height with 195/50/15 till I have the $$ to buy springs, because I know no matter what, with those tire dimensions I should not get tire rub. Then if I get 205/50/15 will I rub with Swift or Progress Springs, or will the stance of the car look overall better with them?

Thanks!

*edit*
Just read up, RE-01Rs don't come in 205/50/15, so I would have to pick a different tire.

Id go with 205/50/15, im running 205/45/16 and I have not had any problems with rubbing. with 205 you will have a bigger contact patch then the 195 for better grip and over all it should look better.
