That's a wired size tyre.
Why go for such a skinny tyre with no side wall?

Thats what i and all the lads in uk and ireland run on our 13x7inch rims, the tyre will sit more aless under the rear arch without rubing when lowered, same as front with coilovers.

Your being lead up the stray path.
No snow and large pot holes, will soon change your mind.

Depends if you don't mind cutting the left front guard, it runs close at 8 o'clock.
205/60/13's is my 2¢ worth.

Sumitomo make HTR200 175/50/13. $140 each fitted from memory. They won't be compliant with road regs though, rolling diameter is too small. 
I suspect your rims have a poor offset (dragways?) Try +20 ~ +30 and you could run bigger tyres
