255/55 16 MT ET Streets Just had a set of these fall in my lap for basically nothing. Was going to mount them on a set of chrome 5 spokes ive had laying around. Will I have any issues? Never really heard of a 55 size tire, seems like everything is 50 size.
Just looking to go to the track occasionally, 3 maybe 4 times a summer, something that will hook better than my KDWS.

That's a 27" tall tire, you might feel a little bit slower with the taller tires on the back (stock is 25.5" tall). If it means anything to you it might disable your ABS and your speedometer will read a little off when you have them on.
But if you're getting them for practically free, I'd take them regardless.

Well im running 275/40/17s right now, and thats what the car is tuned for anyway. Car is a stalled a4 with a HCI lq9 w/3.42s. Will I really notice that much of a difference?
