yea widest tire i can go on em

i like the look of the 225s kinda makes it a sleeper kinda look but i figured if i can get more rubber on the pavement why not... i run Hankook hr IIs and i like em so far if i can get em any bigger i think i might actually get some good take offs w\o slapping my mickeys on

245 50 16's!! you can put 255 50 16's on the rear but it may rub the tail pipe a little on cornering...a friend did it and that was the result

the radial that will measure out to 26 X 10 1/2 X 16 if you reverse or remove the quads

i wanna say 255/50 but i'd have to go in my garage and it's cold out there.

this is what they look like though
