you should run 205/45(or 215?45) for fronts and 225/45 for rear. If you want fatter tires that size up to oem rim/tire, 205/50, 215/50 is also good. The dunlop fm901's are good and so are hankooks tire line.

I'm sure that this has been covered many times before.

My answer: it depends on how you want your car to look, what you'll be using it for, etc.
