Any suggestions as to what tires i should get? i have a 98 trans am automatic with 3.73 gear ratio exhaust and hypertech power programming. i plan to eventually do alot more and have my car over 500 horsepower so should i just go ahead and buy wide tires? Oh and i know the stock tire size is 245/50/16 what does the 245 represent and the 50? i knwo the 16 is rim size?

would you suggest either of these tires?

I have the KDWS...but what that link goes to is a 255/xx/17" tire. you want a 245/50/16 tire...and trust me...you'll be fine until you get in the high 300rwhp mark
