Need advice: 245/XX R16 for Ponies???
 

I've pretty much decided on 245 width tires for the ponies I just bought. However, I'm undecided on the profile. FOr now, the suspension is stock (with STOCK wheel gap). Therefore, I don't wanna go too low profile, but I also don't wanna look like I am driving a damned school bus. Sooooo.... Which profile should I go for?:

1) 245/55 R16
2) 245/50 R16
3) 245/45 R16


I'm currently leaning toward either 50 or 45 profiles.... Please let me know what you guys think.

Most popular size seems to be the 245/50/R16's.

I have 245/50 I think I am going to get 245/45 next time here is a pic of my car.http://63.251.78.219/Image%20file/Mo...DSC00257sn.JPG

I've got BFG Comp TA's ZR's up front in 245/50/R16's and I think they look nice on my stock pony wheels.

The 245/45/16s don't seem to fill out the wheels wells very nicely. I've run 245/50/16s in the rear before and it looked good. I've never ran anything bigger than 225/55s in the front.

Thanx for the advice you guys:) ! I went with 245/50 R16's......

FYI, the approved rim widths(in inches) for the following sizes (at least BFG) are, plus the O.D
