If Zmanco could show a picture of his setup it could really help show you the difference between a 225/50/16 setup on a 16x7 and a 215/50/16 or 205/55/16 setup on a 16x7.

Konig Hypergram 16x8 4x100 +38mm Bronze Wheel Rim 16' Inch. This is the 225/50/16 dunlop on the 16x8 rim:Īlthough I'm running a 1' wider rim than you, the proportions of the above setup would be very similar to a 215/50/60 or a 205/55/60 on a 16x7 setup.

I am running the Dunlop Direzza star spec in the same size as well. Like Zmanco said, a lot of the tires manufactures will vary from each other marginally. But if you need to drive in the wet, the Yok ES100 was the safest of the 3. Side note: you didn't ask, but of the 3, the Dunlops are by far the best track tire, followed closely by the Kumho. Now I have the Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec and they're just a little wider than the Kumho. Then I tried Kumho MX and it rubbed more often. For example, I had Yokohama ES100s in that size with only an occasional rub when hitting a big bump. I have noticed that the width of the tire will vary a little between the various manufacturers. I have the 16x7 panasports with that size tire and only had mild rubbing with the rear fenders. 225/50-16 fits very well and is pretty close to the stock diameter so you won't have to change the speedo gear.
