I have an 87 GN with four GTA fronts. When I bought them..... they had 255/50/16 drag radials... they rubbed slightly when the air was around 20 psi..... real close at 32 psi.... Was running 245/50/16's on the front. They scrub a little when turned all the way.... but other than that... they are OK..... I ended up taking the worn out drag radials off and purchasing a matching set (matcing the tires I had on the front) of BFG Gforce TA KDWS 245/50/ZR16's. I like them ok all the way around..... I can rotate them when I need to now..... the rears clear fine now with the 245/60's .....
Hope this helps.....

I have never taken any pics, but I have some on my website that the guy I bought them from sent me. They are on his car... but you really probably want some different views.....
PS Please excuse my website... I haven't updated it in several months.... my car has changed alot since then.... I actually drive it over 400 miles per week at the moment. (It now has a full stock interior) HTH My Site

The rear rims on this car have been offset towards the outside to make them appear like original GNX rims.
