205/?? like what 205....

kingsol · 09-05-2004, 09:53 PM

well, what kind of suspension are you running and how big is your wheel gap? i wouldn't go below 50's on a 16's, so maybe like 205/55/16... but it's all relative

It's funny how you had to throw in the Watanabe, like it matters for tire size.

the suspension i have is the tein s-techs and wheel specs are front - 16X6.5/offset+25 the rears are 16X7/offset+28

well, it really didn't matter, but whatever... i think you'll be fine with 205/55/16 with your setup
