Question on Tires and Wheels

I can get a good deal on a set of 225/50/16 tires, any idea if those would look OK on the stock salad shooters?

They will fit on the stock rims, but I think they will look a little too small (i.e. they will be ~3/4 inch shorter than 245/50R16's).

I have 255/50R16's on my stock rim 94 Z28.

They'd be great if they were snow tires.

IMO, anything smaller than 235s just isn't characteristic of an f-body.

i have 225/60r16s on my car as rollers for winter on salad shooters (car sits outside) looks weird on the car, that 3/4s of an inch makes a difference, but it works if u have no other choice
