Well first you need to lower it more... I keed, I keed

I don't believe either should rub, but you'd have less of a chance of rubbing with the 195's. What's the width on the blades, anyway? 205 seems like a wide tire for stock honda wheels.

Also, are you running negative camber or did you get camber kits? If you run a little negative camber (I don't see 2.5/2 creating more than -2 degrees of camber which won't hurt anything) you'll have even less of a chance of rubbing.

I would go with 195/55/15. 205/50 has a chance of rubbing.
