    cut him some slack. As its been stated many times before, hes from mexico and english is not his primary language.

    BFG does not make any drag radials in 16s. They do make them in 15s and 17s though. You could always buy some cheap 15s and mount a set of 225/50/15's on there.

    Oh really that is weird the 15 inch SE wheels fit over my SVT brakes on my old 98 and I have seen people running them as winter wheels.
