You could use the stock tires, and see how you like them.
They will fit, but will need to stretch a tiny bit.

I would recommend that you get a new set of tires, though.
The stock Continental tires aren't great to begin with.

i know it's loud but i like how it looks, but i'll think bout it
IMO, would not make tire purchases on looks, but rather performance and safety first.
They're too important on a car.

Are you looking for a summer-only high performance tire?

Jeez too much stretch on a tire for me. Would be worried about damaging the wheel and also blowout.

It also does depend on the tire too but based on stock pro contact contis... it's an iffy choice imo.

If I spent more than 1k on wheels I wouldnt put on cheap stock tires...

Can I see a side view of this? You are running the spec I am considering with stock suspension and and I want to see what it looks like to the side. I really don't want to lower my car. Keep hearing this setup will look strange on stock suspension. I wanna be my own judge of that.
