Yeah, I have 245/50/16's on my rear tires and 225/55/16's on my front tires.
I did this because my car is lowered pretty damn low in the front and I didn't want the tires to rub. If your car has a "normal" lowering height or isn't lowered at all, 245's should fit fine on all corners. ------------------ 1991 GT, AOD, Moroso Cold Air, 3.73s, Pulleys, 3-chambers soon to be dumps after new h-pipe, FMS c-springs, and KYBs, A/c delete, 190 LPH fuel pump, 3-row radiator |
