i have 205-50's on my 16's, ive been looking at either 225-45 or 225-50 for my next set. im leaning towards 225-45's so overall diameter isnt too off of stock. however the 50 series does fill up the wheel well better.
popstar wiht 225-50's on 16's

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

well if you really want to feel up your wheel well, get some 225-55's

just remember this tire size will make your speedometer innaccurate, and it will alter your final drive ratio to the point where it would probably be noticeably slower.

7th gen gts rims are like 6.5in wide...225 width is alittle wide for that..its gonna be bubbley and handle funny....i would go no wider than 215.
On a 6.5" wide wheel, I would not got 225/45/16 as mentioned above. 225/50/15 would be a lot better!
just to say i have 225/50/16 on my gts rims infront and 215/50/16 in the rear and gosh it feel great, plus handles really great with the extra widness, no bumpie ride. It all depend what brand you get !!!
