    Kumho Ecsta asx 245/50/16 $87
    General UHP 245/50/16 $90

    FYI, you can also run a 255/50/16s on the 16" x 8" wheels with no problem!

    Dunlop SP 8000 255/50/16 $113 This is a really good tire !

    Just so you know:
    245/50/16 is 25.65" tall, and a 255/50/16 is 26" tall

    245 is around 9.65" wide, and the 255 is around 10.04" wide

    i got this same tire but in a 265/60/17 tire is a great all season in dry acts like your standard tire, wet traction is great just dont go goofing off in the rain cause they will play there also rated for mud and snow and it snowed here the other day and i was surprised on how they hooked not like my chevy s10's mud kings but wasn't to bad make a great burnout tire they smoke like crazy and will squell not the softest rubbler though but does have great tread life i bought mine at tirerack.com for about 101ea total 435 shipping and handling
