Stance and wheel well clearance

Thoughts on the stance and tire wheel well proportions on my car?

I have 7 inch front with 205 50 16

and 9 inch rear with 245 45 16

I bought the narrower front section tires because I thought that the fronts would look too fat with the 245 45 16 stretched thin by the 9 inch rear


I think I'm as low as I can go and I also think my bilstiens are shot as the ride is REALLY crashy

I wonder if I should go for 55 series on the front next time, especially if I replace the bilsteins and the ride height goes up

Once you get the shocks straightened out, I would be tempted to lower another 1/4 to 1/2" f/r.

Otherwise it looks fine
