If you really want a low-profile tire, go at least 225 in width to compensate.

Yeah, but 225 on the stock 6.5 inch rim... Isn't that going to, I don't know, fit strangly? Like too much width over the rim? My 225/50's bow out in a rather wierd way (even with 40psi). It looks neat, and works fine on the SP Sport 5000's because they are all season anyway and the rubber "let's go" before the maximum force of the sidewall is reached anyway, but won't I be loosing cornering force with that sort of "triangle" sidewall shape? (I may not be explaining this well)
Thanks for all this help, but the way, I really appreciate it.
