I need to buy a set of tires for my stock 16 inch IROC rims. This is not my car, but I like the way the tires look, little wider than usual. What is your best guess-timate for the size of these things?

Re: Need new tires
I am looking to buy tires also, if you want the staggered look go with a 235/60 in the front and a 245/60 in the rear. Does anyone know the original tire that came on the later Iroc rims? I have some 16 in Iroc rims. Want the tires I buy to be just right, for wear, ride, and weight.

Re: Need new tires
i cant tell what size they are in the pic. im currently running 16 inch iroc wheels. just ordered some goodyear eagle ss dot drag radials in 255/50/16 about 2 weeks ago. im told they wont ship til the 19th. i know your not asking about drag radials, but maybe it will help get an idea what will fit? i can put pics up after i mount them if you guys want? currently running some 245/50/16 regular street radial tires. im just looking for some better traction.

Pics would be great, thanks. My guess is the car I posted is 245 / 50 / 16 in front and 255 / 50 / 16 in rear.

Re: Need new tires
you got it guys as soon as theyre mounted up. no problem. bought them through the local speedshop, but jegs and summit sell them for around $190.oo each? look for promo codes to get deals and shop around. mickey thompsons are a lil bit more.
