Sorry-may be out on a limb, but comb through the pix here:

My car has 205/55 on 15's. Take a look at some of the pics of my car or here's one below. I did raise up both the front and the rear about 1.5 inches though.,,it was just too low for the roads here.

is that a recent picture Brian? It looks HOT!
I am going with 195 55's on my new Roadster but I don't have pics yet. Check out the IM website, the factory build section has many pictures and wheel and tire specs. That might help you out.

No, that pic is at least 10 years old. It was a 10 ft car...now after being up here for 10 years I figure its a 20 footer. It still has the same profile tires albeit on Fuchs now.
Makes your gear ratio low. On the freeway 70mph is 4k +rpm.
Yep there is the issue of final gear ratio and recalibrating your speedo.
