Stock IROC wheels (NOT rims) are 16x8 and the tire sizes are 245/50/16 or 255/50/16.

If he is in the Asphalt business and uses those steam-roller
335/35/17 tires on the job, then I would say they are RELEVANT......Otherwise I don't know.

At 1 time they made a 315/35/16 that you could run. I have a set of HRE's for my car and the tire shop said I could but a 17x10.5 with a 315/35/17 on the back of it. Its all in the off set of the wheel
