will these fit without rubbing???? i put them on the front and it looks like it clears.. anybody know for sure

 

should be ok.

the closest 16 inch tire to stock is 205/60/16, so your pretty close.

 

ya they just barely make it but they make it

 

That is what I am running on my RL. Clears the struts and fenders no problem.

BTW. I have 4 Uniroyal Tiger Paw Tour FS if your interested. They still have a ton of thread left on them. I will make your an excellent deal!

 

alread have them thats why i didnt know if it fit

btw the 60 clear the strut by literally maybe a 1/4 of an inch maybe a 1/2

 

The best size for a 16" wheel if you want your speedo to be accurate is 205/55/16

 

205/60/16 actually
215/55/16 is the next closest


205/55/16 is a little small

 

i calculated it to be less than 3/4" shorter than the stock 18s. as soon as my rims show up, ill have my tires mounted up and take comparison pics. i have a set of snowies that size. i wouldnt buy tires that are that different, but i got these for free and they are almost new, how can i refuse

 

205/55/16 is what comes stock on the SE models........which is also the same overall diameter as 205/50/17 (non-supercharged SS, and G5 GT). The Supercharged SS seem to be the odd one out......which is probably due to the different transmission as well?

 

Wouldn't narrower be better for winter tires? I could imagine bad skidding on ice or snow with wider tires.
