SSR SP1R's, anyone running on them??

I am thinking about getting them in hyper black BUT I can't find 16x10 tires anywhere. Does anyone know where I could get some rubber?
I want to run 16x8 F and 16x10 R

Plus if you have these wheels show some pics!

Not much in the way of tires for wheels that wide in 16" sizes. There's a few 245/45/16's out there that you could probably stretch onto those wheels, but they're more commonly reccomended to be on a 9" wheel at most (getting to be less and less choice every year). You can get a couple race tires in 265/45/16, plus the new Kumho XS, which is reccomended for a maximum of a 10" wheel.

Fronts are easier, 225/50/16's are more common and fit 16x8's well, and you might be able to fit a 245/45/16 up front with just the right offset and rolled fenders.

Yeah i am running 245 now and figured that would be pushing it to stretch that much. Very frustrating!
