Did you widened your 16s??
stock wheels are 16x8, not 10s

just a question..

Do you want wider tires for looks or performance?

I've still got 16/245s with GY Eagle F1 GSD3s . They've had EXCELLENT traction wet or dry. It's only since I cammed the car that I've been able to chirp the tires a little without big effort while letting out the clutch. I'm really enjoying that sensation right now. If I went wider, I'd loose it (unless I went to cheap tires)

Sorry, this doesn't answer your question.

255/50/16 is what I'd run. Just to be safe. I'm sure you could make something wider go on, but would be very unsafe.

People fit a 325/50/15 without too much work. Do they make a 16" DR in a similiar size?
