205/55-15 or 205/65-15 tires on stock 15" wheels?
I have the stock 15" wheels and I am shopping for tires. I really whant to get the ContiExtremeContact, but there is no 205/60-15 size. Tirerack.com shows 195/65-15 as original equipment. With the 205/55 i am concerned that the car will be too low, and with the 205/65 I am afraid they will look like baloons 
Any comments?

Tire Rack does have the Continental ContiTouringContact CH95 in a 205/60 & 195/65...
...or the Continental ContiTouringContact CV95 in a 195/65.
Although I've never gotten good wear life with any Continental tire...I like Firestone/Bridgestone/Fuzion though.
If he's so set on the Continental ContiExtremeContact get whichever is cheaper (either 205/55 or the 205/65)...but it's not an OE size........
