Hey guys, I just bought a new set of chrome 16 x 7 ponies for my 92 Coupe. I am trying to decide on tire sizes. I am thinking about going with 245.50/R16 in the back and going with the stock size 225/55/R16 up front. I am looking at the BF Goodrich KDWS. The 245's are 25.7 diameter and the 225's are 25.8 diameter. My assumption is that a 10th of an inch will not be noticible. Anybody else running a similiar set up? Should I just stick 225's all around and be done with it? Thanks ahead of time for any responses.

i wasnt much of a fan of those tires if you want good drip i would go with kwd's but they wont be good in anything other than 100% dry road.
 
As for the sizes they will be fine and you will not notice the
difference. I personally like bigger back tires than the front
in both sidewall and width but different strokes for different
folks. I am buying some centrelines but 15" that are exact
sizes as you are getting. In the future I hope to get a deep
dish new pair with as wide as possible tires for the rear.
On newer stangs, some use 275's in the front :hail2: ,but very
low profile tires. Good luck take advice from others maybe
there are better brands, :shrug: sometimes the namebrand does not justify some products, if you know what i mean. :nice:
