16" GNX style rims, What tire size to go with?????

[8TurboT7]

I just got these rims not to long ago they came with 2 new tires (225/50/16) in the front. Now I need to buy 2 more for the back rims, can someone help me out in finding the right tire size? The rims are 16x8.

Depends on how you want them to look. 255/50-16 is what was actually used on a GNX. Could go with 275 or so if you want wider tires in back. Could go thinner than 255 if you wanted to.

Are the 225/50/16 too small for the front?

In my opinion, yes. I ran 225/55R16 fronts, and 245/50R16 rears when I had my GTA's. HTH
