it would be very helpful if you gave a size/load range/speed rating you need.

Well, that could not be more wrong. :p Go outside and see what size is on there now.


What is stock for 16" Z28s, 245/50/16?

Depends on the options. Could be a 235, but not smaller than that.

it has 205/50/16's on there now...but these r the tires that were on the car when i bought it so there is a chance that the prev. owner put the wrong tires on

He certainly did.

I thought V8 cars got 245/50/16 while the V6 cars got 235/55/16.

Either way, you need something like that.

We are not doubting whats on the car... we are just letting you know the correct size for the car.
