Default buyin tires. needs LAST opinion

decided to go with all 4 the same size to try and make them last a bit longer by being able to rotate ( at least from front to back). heres the link. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...p;autoview=sku

im thinkin about 225/60 to fit ( unfortunatly) my rs wheels. what about a 50? maybe thats to thin? i dont want a ton of wheel well showin here... Lemme know right quick cause im prolly buying tonight.

you could easily get away with a 235/60 with no issues, you will just have to run them 30-35 psi. i dont know if they make a 235/55 or 235/50, but they will both work in your favor

this is confusing

50 is the aspect ratio, not the width the width is the first number

on my old 16" rims i had 245-50-zr16s
