Default tire question
would i have any problems running a 255/55/16 tire for my winter set of tires. I don't mind the car sitting a little high i just don't want rubbing and what not. theese would be mounted on my stock 16x8 inch t/a/ wheels

never heard of that size... u'd be better off with a 235/55 tho, skinnier is better when it comes to snow tires...

I can tell you this from first hand experience--225x60x16 tires will not clear the front of the wheel well when truning lock to lock. 225x55's will.
