I run 245/50/16 Falken ziex 512. I like the way they feel on the road.

srock size tires on the 16" wheels are either 235 or 245 width. I don't know why you would run a 225 width tire, thats the size of my winter tires and they look funny on our cars because they are so narrow. Get some 245/50/16 on that car and it will drive and look much better.
