Scored today! So excited!!

I finally found a set of sweet Iroc rims! I have been looking for a while.
Got a really good price on them
I have 15's on mine now, these are 16! Are they going to fit?
What size tire should I go with? And what a good tire to put on?
Thanks guys

Re: Scored today! So excited!!

nice score!

I had a set of IROC single stripes over here for a long time, and I decided not to use them because they were too shiny and silver for my dark grey car, and I nearly choked on the price of tires. Stuck with 15's after that.


they should fit fine as long as you put stock size tires on them... 245/50-16

Re: Scored today! So excited!!

wouldn't expect quite as soft a ride, i bet you will get more road feel out of a 50 series tire.

Re: Scored today! So excited!!

I just coughed up $1000 for my new rubber. Because you're running 16's you should be able to find some decent priced tires. Love the ride though.
