If I'm not mistaken, the stock tire size IS 225/55/16, so any stock Ford pic you can find on google should provide this.

And if i keep my 245 50 16 on the back for a little bit they would be the same height as the 225 55 tire. the 245 50 16 is 122.5MM high and 225 55 is 123.75. CLOSE ENOUGH???

I think you're going a little to anal with the tiresizes here.. You will be fine with 245's in the rear.

I think you'd want larger tires in the back...

I have 225/55/16's up front and 245/50/16's out back. They appear to be the same height. I'd post a pic, but my car is STILL in the body shop.

Best i can do is 225/50/16s, which are decently wide but a little low profile.

Here they are all around when i first got my wheels:


Here's with 265/60/16 DR's in back
