On stock 1996 rims, can 215/55/16 tires fit?
Also, how difficult is it to install the FSTB?
Thanks to all that respond.

** sorry....I'm a new Max owner. It's an SE, and the wheels are not of the 5 spoke variety. Standard wheel size according to the spec is 215/60/15. Strangely enough, the tires on the auto now are 205/65/15. Not really sure as to why. I purchased it that way. I'm beginning to suspect that someone switched rims at one time in the car's life.

About the only choices that you have in tire sizes are what you have now, what came on the car, and maybe a 225/55/15 (uncommon size) or 225/60/15. Otherwise, you'll probably need to buy larger rims.

BTW, if you're current rims are a swirled seven spoke design like these http://www.aaarims.com/wheels/62319.JPG then that's what came on the '96 SEs.
