Are you planning on sticking with 15" wheels?

Typically when you go with a little lower profile tire it's good to upsize the rim so your overall tire diameter stays the same. I'm running 205/50 R16's and am pretty happy with them.

If you're sticking with 15" wheels, I'd probably just recommend sticking with the stock size.
