Default Biggest tire for a 16" wheel
What is the biggest tire you can go with on a stock 16" wheel. I would like something nice for the track instead of running my 18" Z06er's. Thanks

Thanks, I want a nice set for the back for when I hit up the track. I think the 18's may have slowed me down a bit last time.
