The largest "high performance" street tire that is made for the 16x8" stock wheels is a 255/40-16. Also the largest size for most Drag Radials.

You can fit wider tires, but the only ones available are generally 4-season, medium performance tires. Often, they are only available in 28-30" outisde diameters, which don't really work well on a 4th Gen. Look at the BFG Radial T/A for 16" sizes:
