16 Rims, Need Tire Size

SVLeonard85 · Sep 14th, 2004, 04:13 PM

Hey, I have a 92 B13 Sentra SE. Im looking at buying some 16X7 rims, what would you guys recommend for tires? Brand and size would help. Whats a good brand and do I want 205/40/16 or do I want something different. Some help would be great.

you wont have problems with 205/40 R16.
Falken Azenis are excellent.
check out the other thread.
wheel size/ratio

best bet is probably 195 or 205 50s, they might be bigger, but they'll be more comfortable.

yup, 50 series wont have a harsher ride

Will 50's still fit on my B13 with 16x7?

Yes... they'll throw off your speedometer some, though. They'll be about one inch higher... closest match would be 195 45 16 (although I'm not sure you can find ANYTHING in that size) or the aforementioned 205 40 16s (which aren't difficult to find.)

Tirecalc will help you decide what size to get...

Getting a pretty good deal on them so far, what do you guys think of these tires, any problems or have you heard anything about these tires?

Any help would be great.
