so im picking possibly some 16x7 40+ rims for use on the street or strip.... im wondering which tire size anyone here has run or seen being used on a 16" rim that gives me a nice chunky but decent look.

this is the look im looking for ...something a little less then this!!!!

the traditional tire size is about 215/45/16 which is ok for smaller car but i need something to help fill up the wheel well and still be streetable once in a while...

im considering these tires size but finding pics in a good angle is a ****..

205/50/16
215/50/16
225/45/16

...for those who frequent the track u guys might know best using smaller rims on the tc...

im looking to put either some drag radials or some falken azenis's since they usually have a nice sidewall...

thanks for any info and pics fellas...

 

Azenis RT-615 by falken. 215/45/16. These tires are very aggresive. Look on internet vulcan tire ect.

 

215 50 would probably be better.

 

Sorry for the repition on the rt-615 but I just got them and they launch great.

 

mcclone are you using them on a 16" rim got pics??

 

No I have stock 17's. 225/45/17. No pictures yet, going to the track Wednesday to see if I can shave some time off

 

i also am looking for a 16" rim with a nice chunky but aggressive sidewall... would love to see a pic of a 215/50/16 setup on a tc...

 

so what tire size did you go with?
