Depends on the brand/model of the tire - see if you can find it on www.tirerack.com and click on dimentions.

The widest on that size is 10.2.I know cause i have that size on my 98.I got the factory gsc tires still.Now ive seen other tires that size that is 9.8 and 10.0 in width too.You could always go to a 255/50/16 and look at all the different tire widths and you can find a few companies that have a 10.4 width,that is the widest you can go on that size on a 50 series tire with that rim.Like nbmz28 said go to tire rack.com
