16 inch wheel tire question

[jorez]

I have regular 15x8 wheels and 255/60/r15 on the car now. If I go with 16 in wheels, will I need 50 series tires to keep the speedo slightly correct?

Tire Diameter Calculator website

This site has a tire diameter calculator. It will allow you to test some different combos. Hope it helps. http://www.rx7turboturbo.com/robrobinette/tire_diameter.htm
