i have 235s, and they seem to fit pretty good, i think even 255 would fit [img]tongue.gif[/img] -
255's fit very well. 255-50-16's are as close to the stock tire diameter as you're gonna get, ynless you get the 235-55-16's.2001 Arctic White Firebird<br />More mods than I\'m allowed to list!Comment

I have 285s in the back and they rub just a hair when i hit irregularities in the road but nothing you can hear. u can just see lil rubs on the sound proofing stuff in the fender well.

i just got 245's (245/50/16) put on today, i like the look of them much better than the stock 215's, they fit just fine. i believe 255's are the widest you can go on 16x8

I bought 245s last week, and like them very much. Now that I see them on the car, I could've gotten away with 255s without having much of a "bubbled out" look. :(<b>1998 Firebird 3800 Series II, A4</b><br />Direct-Flo Lid,K&N Filter,DEE TB Spacer,TPS-TEC,ZZP Mini-AFC,Raised and Cutout Airbox 7mm,BMR STB & Boxed LCAs,KYB AGX Shocks,Drilled/Slotted Rotors,180* Thermo,2.5\" Catco Cat,Dynomax 2.75\" custom catback,Kumho Ecstas/245,Jet Stage 2,3.42,Edge Racing 2870 Stall,B&M Tranny Cooler,B&M Deep Tranny Pan,LSD,AAM Girdle,1LE DS,NX Wet Kit,MSD DIS-4,MSD Blaster Coil Packs,Taylor Spiro Pro 8mm Wires,NGK TR6\'S gapped .045,ZZP UD WP Pulley,SLP Fan Switch,TT II\'s<br />N/A: 15.6342 @ 88.44 (On stock converter.

I believe 255's are the widest you can go without looking stupid. 245's are nice.<a href=\"http://www.saintsworth.com/z06\" target=\"_blank\">\'02 Corvette Z06</a>Comment
