Default tyres for escos rims on a sapphire?

hello helpfull ppl.

anyone tell me what size tyres will fit with no problems on escort cossie rims being fitted on a sapphire cossie? when i looked at the car before i bought it it had a set of escos rims on it but i opted to have the latice ones back on but i wanna stick the escos ones i got on for winter cos the latice are a pain in the arse to clean!

i'm thinking 215 or 205? anyone confirm which?

p.s. it's lowered a fair bit too!

I've got 215/40ZR16 Toyo Proxes S1 fitted on my Escos wheels on my Sierra Cosworth 4x4 with std. ride height. Fits fine - no probs

Btw. a picture of the car can be found right here
