Originally ordered 215/45 17 from Edge Racing. Well, 2 days later they tell me they have none in stock and can't get them. Thought about it for awhile and decided I want to stay with 16's. So I order the 205/50 16 from Tire Rack. Now I'm a little worried about the width....and maybe a better choice would have been the 215/45.

Not to worry! Check these babies out. They are wider than the 215 snows. The pic is comparing the mounted 215's to the unmounted 205's, but can't believe the width will change much. For now, they'll be mounted on the stock ST rim, whilst I keep looking for something I like.

nice tire pattern. looks agressive..hopefully the road noise isnt bad

nice and fck it if they are loud turn up the radio lol

I've got one brand new Kook 14' under my bad...LOL I like the tread pattern on them...Never used it tho, so dunno how they perform.

I think I'm going to sell the 16x7's I bought.... if you are interested let me know. Money is needed in other places right now, sadly

Team Dynamics 'Monza' in Flat Black. Brand new in the box.

Those look tasty though

Got them on and ran them today. They are not that happy with the cool temps, but tossing the car into the local 25 mph off ramp, I can tell I'm gonna have fun with them. They are not loud at all. We'll see if that changes as they wear.

Pappy, bummer you're thinking of selling the rims you just got! If they weren't black maybe we could've worked a deal.

How much are you looking for for those rims? I need some winter shtuff for next year, but I might just get EAPs for summer and run the 6-spokes during the winter once I burn through my all-seasons.

You should be fine. This winter I put that same size 205/50/16 winter tires on my stock st rims. And had no problem. I did have a little rub issue bajaing over some nasty pot holes. But that was pretty extreme bottoming out.
