Absolutely not

205/55/16 for the fronts, 225/50/16 for the rear, even better 245/45/16 in rear. Stick to OEM size and tire if possible

Do yourself a favor and get adjustable coilovers. you can run any size wheel/tire you like. I am running 19x8 with 235-35 right now with no issues and the ability to raise or lower the car and adjust the rebound/damping is a must.

if ur only lowering the car an inch you should have no problem with your oem sizes fitting, actually it would look better with the oem sizes because it will take some fender gap of, actually it will take 1" of fender gap off to be exact lol
