Default Tire size

I have 255x45x17 in the front and 275x40x17 in the rear on some cobra r wheels. The fender has been rolled and I had to actually raise the car back up with some cut stock mustang springs in the rear after it had been lowered. The fat tires and large wheels look great! I won first place saturday at a mustang show. They really add alot. But I am not sure they are worth the price of the tires. The front turning radius sucks! It feels like it has been cut in half. Small parking lots are hell especially with that T5 giving me hassle to get in reverse. It drives great on the highway and on not to sharp turns. You get used to driveing with fat tires. Guess that's the price for looks? I think I will be going with 245x45x17 next time around. Hope this gives you an other perspecictive.
