I've got 225's on my 16x7 ponies. I could get a close up picture of them if you would like. they look normal on there so I'm sure you could go a little wider.

225s are what came on the Pony's stock. I'd think that you could go wider but when the tire is wider than the rim on sports car, it doesn't look good.

I would go 245/50/16's.
Or this is a good choice--BFG's

225/50/16 is what I have on front. 245/50/16 is what i have on back. The 225/50/16 is kind of a bad picture.
