Dear god that tire size is way too small for an e30 on a 16".

I hear 205s fit 10" wheels very well, go with that.

maybe 185/40R15 would be better. make good use of all of that sidewall. I hear the rubber is stickier and gives you better traction.

To really properly stretch a tire you have to go down a tire size, so for a 15" rim you should use a 14" tire. As the tire sidewall stretches it fit over the larger wheel. This is the only safe way to do redicustrecth tires.

Downsizing the diameter of the tire also adds extra tension to prevent the bead from popping off.

As you can see no one with "kidd" in their username will be taken seriously here.
