tire size

Hi all! I just want to know what's the biggest tire I can fit a 16x6 wheel? I am planning to replace my 215/70R16's. Thanks!

Are those stock wheels?

265/75 R16 Should fit. Going that big with the 4cyl would show significant power loss

*edit* What's the backspacing if not stock?

Yes, it's all stock but Im not going all the way, maybe a 235 or a 245/70R16 will suit me fine.

Any tire recomendations for 80% hiway, 20% offroad driving?
