I just put these on last week. 255/50/16 all around i think they really fill up the wheel wells. The tires are BFG G-force sports.

Around 107.00 a tire thru tirerack.com. I love how they handle. And They stick great! much better then the Futura Zs i had. Even out of the hole.

I havent had them long, but they are the best all around tire, ive ever had on this car. Heres what the tread looks like.

Hey thanks...

MaNiAk86.....the 255s dont rub on mine at all. looks like you have stock IROCs. you should have no problems running 255s on the rear with those rims.

How many miles have you put on yours?

i have 255's on the rear. i have 245's up front. i was wondering if i could go bigger than 255 in the rear. and then switch to a 255 in the front. (so you can turn lock to lock with no rubbing?)

i have only about 6 months worth of driving on them, but i did so some auto-xing and quite a few burnouts so the rears arent in the best of shape, but still about 50% left. the fronts id say have a bout 75-80% tread left.

and i only paid $94 a piece through tire rack for the 255's, only $90 for the 245's

I just bought my son a set of the g-force sport for his sentra spec v. I do recommend them. He has the 17" wheels. Tires ran about $156 with bal, road hazard and all the other frekin fees from a local tire shop.

Thanks 92RS(realslow)


No rubbing...255s are about the best your gonna get with a 16x8 rim. That look right.. you can get tires in a wider/taller size, but there still a 50 series so the sidewall is too tall doesnt look right imo.

They seem to be going up in price.

I had a chance to get the car out on the highway. With the new tires and subframes the car is on rails thru the turns. I love these tires...they feel really good at the limit. IM impressed with straight line traction too.
