BFG Sport Comp-2 255/50r16 Pics Wanted!

Hi,

I am considering the putting on the BFG Sport Comp 2s in 255/50r16. Has anyone put these on their third gen, and if so, can you upload a quick pic?

Re: BFG Sport Comp-2 255/50r16 Pics Wanted!

I am planning to buy some today, BFG has a rebate on them @ Town Fair tire. I am going to go with 255/50 in rear and 245/50 up front on Iroc single spoke wheels retrofitted on my 1983 Z.

I am repainting the wheels too, with tires off. I am planning to go with a gunmetal grey paint but looking for the best Silver color to use, any suggestions form this community?!

I suppose you're looking for those exact tires in that exact size, in which case I can't help you...

But if you just want feedback on that size, I've got a couple shitty pics of BFG Comp T/A drag radials in 255/50R16.





For street tires I can see absolutely no reason to bother. The 255 sidewall is a hair taller, but not enough difference to be meaningful. Certainly not enough difference to intentionally stagger the tire front/rear. The only reason I ran the 255 is because that's what BFG offers (offered) in a drag radial.
