Default questions about lowering (wheel/tire choices) (long)

I currently have stock non sport suspension with 15 inch stock wheels and 105/65/15 tires. I am planning on getting eibach sport kit with bilsteins to lower between 1 and 1.5 inches. It looks like with my current setup something will rub the tire in the rear (control arm?) anyway I have been thinking about my options here is what ive thought of so far; keep my 15 inch wheels drop it and get a smaller tire maybe 205/50/15 or somewhere in that area. any ideas how this would look? my other thought is s4 wheels with a tire like 205/45/17.

Default 205/60/15

Is the stock size tire. It fits without rubbing, even on a lowered car.
