Fess up bitches, whats a man size tire to you?

Im gonna with anything 275+
 
400+ lol. I don't have power so I couldnt tell you. But I street slide on my 245's so........? Ya I would say anywhere above 275
 
compound is more important in my mind than width. You can only go so wide for the cars weight before its pointless to go wider. The size of your contact patch has alot more variables than just tire width. Things such as tread pattern, static/dynamic camber, weight shift, and the cars static weight. A light ass car isn't going to be able to really utilize wide ass tires since it doesn't have enough weight to transfer to effectively make the contact patch big enough to make a difference from a smaller tire. It becomes an exercise in diminishing returns after a while.

Case in point "Man tires" are relative to the car, 235's might be man tires on a AE86 but you need 305's on a camero.
 
uhh i have 215's on my se's (s13) with a pretty decent amount of tread on them, ive been street sliding on them for about 2 months now.... and i can roll 3rd gear in the rain stock ka ftw lol

yeah, but I think I'll have room to fit em. If not, I'll get em under there somehow. I've ran 245/45/17 and almost always run 255/40/17. I gots room to spare on both.

Its not like my car can look any worse.
