sounds like you have room for some good rubber. Id say 225-40r16

wait how wide are your wheels?

225 & 215/45s are what I have on my 16s.

225 40 16 or 205 50 16.

When ever you need to know just google for "tire size calculator"

The UPS guy just dropped off some 205/45-16 a half an hour ago. I've been running 225's, but honestly, it's too much grip for the street to have fun with. I'm tired of sticking - I want something that I can slide around in a bit with out. If 205's don't do it, I'm going to try some high-mileage rating econo-tires.

Dame e30. Too much grip sometimes.

Your UPS guy drops off at 10pm? lol

[george graves]

Oh - I should say I got home, and he had dropped it off.

Only to George's house.

That's when the UPS guy shows up with his package.

Ohhhhh, the United Penis Suppliers, got it George ;)

Wheel width and offset are going to be a factor here.

Example.. I run 225/45/16 on my 16x7.5 ACS wheels that have a ET25 offset but have to run 205/50/16 on my Borbet Type T 16x7 wheels that have a ET20 offset else they rub.

205/50/16 on a 16x7.5 borbet C , very very slight stretch ( angeled tire ) All depends on tire make too. I was running Ziex 502's

225/45/16 on my 16x7.5 t-star reps.
