    What size tire can I fit on my stock rims for my 2000 GTP, they are the chrome 5 spoke stock rims, I think they are called torque stars, anyway i was looking to go to about 245s. Thanks

    "Q: Will 245/50/16 fit on a factory rim?
    A: YES, but not safely, in emergancy manuvers the bead could roll and the tire could blow out, WHICH IS A BAD THING!"

    Its a lot of tire on a rim that is only 6 1/2" wide. But it should work if you feel the need...

    i've been running the 245/50/r16's for over 4 years now and they've been outstanding. And i'm a very aggressive driver and i drive them hard with no issues so far.
