Does anyone know of any 16" 275-285 wide tires?

[Choseph0027]

Just as the title says. I went with a 16" wheel to try and put a big meaty tire on them, but I am having a hard time finding them in 275-285 wide. I can only find 255 wide on tire rack.

I am looking for a street tire

Can anyone help?

You're gonna want to switch to a 17" for tires that size. 16" tire selection suck a lot of shlong.

Truth.

Porsche folks are in the same situation. Both 15 and 16 inch tires are almost non existent in high performance/racy sized street tires. Most people run DOT race tires and deal with the trade offs. !7s as lambo said offer more options but even their selection is not what it used to be.

Damn...I was afraid of that. That's a shame because 16's look the best on the e30 imho. Everything else looks too big.
