Default '91 LX 5.0 tire size ??

I want to stay with the stock 16" Pony wheels.

Can I go to a wider (thread width) tire without sacrificing height?

Right now the car is running 225/55/16 tires.

thanks, Rob

Probably. There are a lot of people running 245's, 265's, even 275's. But im not sure what height they are.

i used to run a 245 50 16 until i got my welds and i don't think there is much of a diff. between the side wall height plus i think they look a little better

isn't the rule of thumb you can go two sizes bigger?
