[Shotimes] Anybody running 255/50 16's?

[Paul Nimz]

I use them on my '93 with the Gen3 16 x 6.5 rims.  Nitto 450 EPs.  No
problems except a fast reading speedo by about 3-4 mph.  I have also used my
245/45s on the Borbet Type E 16x7.5" rims with out rubbing.  They both are
about 24.25" tall in real life.
