Default Tire size question...
I'm going to be putting a set of 16" factory 5 star pony rims on soon. I need to buy new tires. What size do I need to go with?

245/50/16 or what looks good?

Thanks...

Put some 255's out back, 225's in the front or 245's all the way around if you want the same size.
