I just bought brand new 16x7 pony rims. Which brand tires should I get. I want something that will give me good traction. Also, I think I am going to get 245/50/16 tires. Is that good or can I get a little wider than that? What are you guys running on pony rims?
yokos or comp tas are good to get. hoosier makes a good street tire. with that size, get your speedo checked cause you will be a little off,and ya dont want the blue hat behind you giving you a gift to remember him by

got nitrous? only babies, and little boys with bowties use bottles!
they can take away my keys from my cold dead lifeless hands, if they can catch me first
I'm really not to worried about the price. I have a friend that owns a tire and rim shop, so I can get a great price. I'm not really too sure if I want to get drag radials. If I was to run drag radials on a daily driven car would I run into any problems?
I've been told 245's fit. But if I look under the car, the rear tires are already close to the tailpippes. My friend has 245's on his ponies and it doesn't rub. I hope it doesn't rub on my car.
now i know you can get a 245/50/15 on athe stock 15'sand they dont rub or foul up the speedo,as for the others, not sure.

Try the Kumho Ecstas Supras, they are outstanding tires. They are a very aggresive unidirectional tire that is V or Z rated I think and they are about $85-$100 each, closer to the $85 range but I just want to cover myself. My brother got some and he loves them. In addition, my friend has 245/50/16's on his pony rims, and he doesn't complain of rubbing. They definitely look awesome though.
