Tire question?
I could not find the answer in search, but will P215/55/R16 fit on stock rims for my 87?

That's super close to what size tire I have on my 91, but I do not know.

I think the acutal size is 225/50/16s but you can always got to tire rack and look, i would think the tires would look funny on the car seeing how the one your going to put on are taller then stock

well i dont know how much taller the sidewall would be or how much higher the supra would appear because the first number 215 is the width of the the lip on the rim, the second number 55 is the ratio which determines the height of the sidewall and of course the third number 16 is the diameter of the rim. so since the first post said it was 215/55/16 and the next post said it was 225/50/16 they would be about the same, almost not even noticeable.
