obsolete Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 Most people have switched to 245/50/16 at this point. There's a little more selection, and they look okay to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmanperez Posted February 18, 2023 Report Share Posted February 18, 2023 I recently got my rears 225/50 16s at Pepboys seems like they were able to get just about any size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tux Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 Whelp, i just attempted to order from tire rack and they were very persistent that they didn't want to sell me two different rubber compound bridgestones. Not sure if they wanted to push me into the more expensive advans or Pirelli. I, myself, ended up with Toyo R888R in 245/45 and 225/45 I never drive the car so i should be fine with the 20k miles or so I hear i might be lucky to get out of them and never expect to be in the rain.

techboy Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 I switched to the 50's like the other guys on this post said. I really don't like them though. There's just too much meat and it doesn't look proportionally correct to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
