just installed coilovers... but... my tires have thin sidewalls and look bad. I want to put a new tire on, one with a taller sidewall, my current setup is 205/40/17 in the front, and 215/40/17 rear, the rims are17x7 both front and rear, I would like to go widest possible without having to get new wheels, but i am not sure if i can run bigger than 225s, and not sure on the sidewall size to run. The suspension is Apex'i N1 Evolution Drift Coilovers. and i have not changed the height settings from how they were set by factory.

any input on your setup and tire width and sidewall sizes would be very helpful, as well as recommendations for low budget good tires... if there really is such a thing....
