How does the clearance look? I'm thinking of going with the 225-60-16. It's a shade bigger as opposed to a shade smaller, but is still safe on a 6.5" wheel.

Tons of clearance for the tires. Could easily got a size ot two larger for sure. The main concern for everybody was the wheels clearing the calipers, but there's about .200" or so.

Awesome! thanks for the final confirmation rearview!

I got mine yesterday and the tread looks great, these are going to be great in the winter!

If you havent jumped on this deal yet, get cracking.

I highly doubt you can find a sweeter deal than this for the SS!
