What are good tires sizes for 16s???
I am planning on buying rota c8s or 10s in bronze color. Would size 205/50/16 or 205/45/16 be good for these tires? Also does anybody know about or where I can find info on what it means to have z, w, etc. RATED tires? Thanks.

if you want to remain as close to the OEM diameter as possible, you will want 205-45-16s.
www.tirerack.com has LOADS of information on tires, including sidewall numbers. but to answer quickly, the "z" is the speed rating; which is how fast the car can go on those tires on a allotted amount of time.
what tires are you looking at?
