I know that the factory size for these are 205/50/16. But if I wanted to get a slightly beefier looking tire, would 205/55/16 be fine? I also bet that these would improve road quality a little bit.
Also, if anyone has pictures of their GTS wheels with bigger tires then the stock recommended size, I'd love to see it and know what you're rolling on.

honestly, I've just recently put my gt-s wheels on w/ 205-50-16 and the ride quality actually feels better than my stock wheels w/ 205-55-15. So I don't think you need a "beefier" tire size, it'll just take away from the look of the wheels. You should be fine with the factory size or even a little lower if you wanted to.

I ran 205-45r15 on mine with Sportline drop and I never had any issues with ride quality.

it's not a huge difference. About 1 cm in total diameter.
