i just went to tires23 and put a deposit down for these tires got a pretty good price too...... but my concern is that my car is lowered on eibac prokits and these wintertires are lowprofile and they are 16 inch will this make my car even lower? i can still go back and exchange them from either the bridgestone blizzak or x-ice.. what sucks is that i waited this long to get wintertires and its my first time buying em :P

16's should be 205/55R16 or tires with same diameter.

'low profile' is rather ambiguous. we need the tire size.

16's should be 205/55R16 or tires with same diameter.
im thinking he went with a different size, since he is specifying that it is low profile

[singhspeed]

i did go with 205 55 16

and i guess i said low profile kuz i mis-read something on tirerack.com but my bad on that part...

but will my car sit even lower now or should i be fine because thats my only concern at the moment

Assuming that your summer tires are stock or stock diameter, your car will sit at the same height. So if you summer tires are 205/50R17 (stock size for 17" wheels) or 225/45R17 or 225/40R18 you will be fine.

im running the stock 17 rims and tires on my car at the moment so i guess i'll be fine

yeah, you'll be fine. These are good tires BTW. This is my 2nd winter with these tires 205/50/17 on the stock 17s and lowered 1.75" all around, it's like night and day compared to the stock RSA's but I can't compare to other winter tires as these are my first.
