Im currently using 225/50R16 Kumho Ecsta Spt KU31's as a daily driver. On my 2nd set of rims im running some Kumho Ecsta Spt KU15's as track rubber.

Fingers crossed the 16's fit over the brakes on the 86!. 16's are the smallest you can get on the ST205 because of the big Supra Twin Turbo 4 pot front brakes. So should be fine on the 86... i doubt the brakes will be any bigger.
I know. However it's the same overall diameter, not necessarily the same size. That being said, we don't really have a lot of long straight roads in these parts. I note this because I'm trying to get an ST185 and have been researching setups. I've settled on a wider tyre in the front. 225/40-17 and 205/45-17

As for 16"s and big brakes... **sigh** is all I have to say

Back to your regularly scheduled thread.
