TOYO T1R Proxes ... They make just about every size a person could want !
By the way,i'm sure you will be scolded on your less than "etiquette" introduction ... lol

Cheers !

you'll be better off with a 225/50 x16 in the front. 205's are a waste on that car.

Toyo is discontinuing a bunch of sizes in the T1R, I'm guessing in the 15" & 16" dia. range. I was looking for some 15's which have been discontinued, and after 4 calls today I was able to find a pair of 205/50/16's from a store that had them in stock, as the factory quit making them. I also bought a pair of the 245/45/16's a few weeks ago, it took some looking. You might look at the R1R.
