another tire thread

ok guys. i need some rubber for my 16" rims. i want to try the good year fuel max tires. see if they really do help increase mileage. they don't make then in the exact size for the 16" but after going through each 16' size that they make here is what i came up with that was close. (if you don't feel like looking at a calculator thats fine)

225/55/16 - 3.589% difference
205/55/16 - .083% difference
205/60/16 - 3.346% difference
215/55/16 - 1.49% difference

225/60/16

i like the look of the slightly wide tires that are on it already, so i dont want to lose that. and i don't care if the tire is a little taller, i'd actually prefer that.

which of these is the best to go. now i want a little taller tires, but i dont want it to rub when turning. and i may eventually lower the car eventually

or does anyone have suggestions for tires. i want directional ones... but i also want ones for good mileage
