I run 205/50s on my 16 x 7" Fuchs on my lowered 77, with a 6mm spacer on the rears and the rear arches rolled. I like the Goodrich G Force Sport Comp 2s I've had for about 5 or 6 years, but Tire Rack is showing the Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 just slightly higher in the subjective rating for tires in the ultra high performance summer class. The rating was almost identical, with the Firestones having a firmer ride, which I may not want but someone else might...

This size yields a slightly smaller overall diameter, which throws the speedo off a little, but I like the lowered look and the added acceleration.
