Its a 97 and has the 16's stock since its a sport

& i dont want to trim out anything or let anything rub..

Just wanted to know as its hard to find a good deal on a tire with the stock size 215/65-16
as i want somthing with more aggressive tread than the current all seasons

As I recall, mine are 225/70 16s and rub only slightly on the tightest turns.  They haven't caused any problems in the over two years I have had them.  I wouldn't hesitate to replace them with the same size.  Calculating the diameter and width is easy from the size numbers if you want to fine tune your selection.  I was looking for something a bit taller and narrower than stock when I chose those.  As I remember, the exact size I wanted wasn't readily available.

Is that a popular size in 16inch?

225/70?

i saw that a 235/60 will work.. will a 235/70 work?

I had no problems finding 225/70 R16s.  Mine came from Big O.  I suspect 235/70s would rub a bit more than the 225s.

Its Not the fact i'm having a problem finding the original size, its the fact that odd sizes tend to run more dollars..

so i was hoping to find a popular size... what about a 225/75-16?

Sure, You can fit anything, How much lift do you have? and or, trim the hell out of the fenders.

Stock rims might work in the short term but 5.5" is to narrow for a 10.5 tire.
