this is probably a dumb question but would these tires fit the stock rim for a 2006 V6 stang i think rim size is 16x7

 

Where is the link?

 

http://www.americanmuscle.com/nitto-...255-50-17.html my bad

 

Nope they are 17's and you have 16's, also 255 is to big to fit on a 7" wide rim

 

so what would b the best tire for a 16x7

 

That depends because "best" is a relative term. What do you want to do with the car? Something that is "best" for the dragstrip won't be good on the street. Something that is great on the street won't be as good on the road course.

 

the size tire i have on now are 235/55 zr 17 so thats why im confused with the sizes. yeah im not putting it on the dragstrip what i want high perormace race tires

 

You must have the 17" bullitts on your car then if you are running a 235/55 x 17 tire - so you don't have the stock 16" wheel apparently. With that, the Nitto's that you posted would fit, although they recommend a 9" wheel and the stock bullit is 8" (wheel width so the dimension on the bullitt is 17x8).


'Race tires' though will not give you the wear on the street as a high performance passenger tire. The Nitto you posted though is not the Nitto 555R which is the drag radial version of that tire, and is designed for street performance so more appropriate to your intended use.

Others may have ideas on different street performance tires for you to consider. I still run on the Pirelli P-zero's on my car and have been happy with those. For the track I have a completely different set up with a bias ply rear "cheater slick" and narrow fronts.

 

yeah i have the bullit rims so those tires i posted will fit right?

 

that's correct, they will fit.

I think all assumed you had the base V6 Mustang wheels which are 16". You must have a Pony package, which came with the 17" bullitts.
