Would a Thicker Tire eliminate Wheel gap from my Suspension?

[Nycxeracer]

Sup guys, im getting new tires real soon. Gonna go all out, and spend the money on some quality shit. So, if you look in my pic below, u see i have a slight gap in my rear, way more than my front IMO. I have barely 1 finger gap in front, and almost 2 in back. I want it to be even. So, does anyone have any idea as to if i get a meatier tire, would the gap be that much smaller? For EXAMPLE: change the 205/50 to 205/60? the middle numbers the "meat" if im not mistaken. Any help, would be appreciated.


BTW those tires are 190/45/r15

of course, the beefier the tire the more space its going to take up, but beefier tires look *** imo. get a better drop.

Yea 205/55/15 is a nice stance...15's you can't really go 45 or even 50 series on an accord. Even with a fairly large drop (2") you will still have wheel gap.

On my all season tires (winter tires) I have 195/60/15 and STILL have wheel gap with my eibach sportlines . But on my summer tires 205/55/15 since the ratio is about the same (a little wider of a tire) its awesome.

first number is width in MM, 2nd number is a percentage of the width and last number is size of inside diameter also correspondes with size of rim its going on.
