    16" rubber

    for me vert.

    Local preferred (duh) but if you can get me a good deal and still save me after shipping, I'm open to it.

    First choice is BFG G-force, but will entertain any good street tire.

      I knew you and I shared the same problem.

        Scott, as small as your hands are, that can't be true. ;-)

        And Will tells me to stop about 1/3 of the way in . . .

          God gave me small extremities where it matters.

          Small hands - easier to work on cars.

          Small feet - cheaper and easier to buy shoes.

          He made sure the other extremities were appropriately enlarged to do their job right too ;)

          PS - Will may SAY stop, but he means to keep going. Which you do.

            I can vouch for Hankook K106 as a nice street tire. And cheap too.

              Two of the 225/45-16 AVS ES100's on some of my old wheels have *decent* tread left. As long as you're still planning on lowering the 'vert and you run the tires on the sides opposite to what I did, they should be good for the summer. They'd be free if you don't mind temporary mix-matched tires.

                  Dude, the vert is SLAMMED. H&R race ftw.

                  Sounds like you've got a car full of shit heading my way then ;) Maybe I'll toss these here on the front and grab a new pair.

                  Fucking tits.

                          im running 16x7.5 et30 front and back with 205/50s on and ive never even had a slight rub. 205/50 is very close to stock diameter, 205/45 is too small

                            205/50 is fine on stock fenders, i have 225/45 with minor rolling and no issues.

                              I've got 16x7.5 et 25 - and a vert on H&R races. I'm just concerned that since I tuck the stock weaves, I may have clearance issues...
