2.0? do u mean 2 inches off the ground? the lowest point on my car is the underbrace which is like maybe 3 inches off the ground. My wheel set up is 18x8 38+ 18x9 38+, 215 40 18 in front 235 40 18 in the rear.. have 5mm spacers all around. my front bumper is about 4 1/2 - 5 inches off the ground. my front fenders are wavy since the tires hit my fenders.

It really depends on what style of stance you're shooting for.
More poke in the rear?
Tucking?
Stretch/no stretch.
First you have to remove your fender liners and roll your fenders.
What coilovers do you have?
As you can see, there are a few things that come into play.

Obviously size plays the main part on deciding how much stretch you want but the brand of tire also makes a huge difference. Going with a thinner side wall tire with less lip protection will stretch more than majority of tires on the market. For example, falken 452, 512, 912, Nankang nsII, some Nittos all have really thin sidewalls. Majority of "stanced" cars with significant stretch will be running those brands. Figuring out a size of tire is a whole other story. I'm just lazy when it comes to typing.
