Tire sizing help
hey all,
I have the stock 16" wheels which are goodyear HR 245/50/R16. Im not too savy when it comes to tire tech, so please help me. I would like to run a wider tire something around 275 if possible. The only thing is when looking at tires at tirerack, if I search by size i can't get anything bigger than a 245 for the 16 wheel. for the 16" wheel can I run anything bigger than a 245? If so please point me in the right direction of finding one. Thanks
Edit: Wanted to add that this is my DD so I don't want slicks or radials, something that can drive in the rain....

Alright thanks for the input guys. I am thinking about the Goodyear f1 G3s with the 245/50/16.
Side note, are the ws6 wheels that look like mine 17"? Might be able to buy a used set because I really like the wheels I have now.
