my tires are shot on this mustang i got a couple months ago and I got to looking at the tires last nite they are different sizes. 225/50 in front and 245/50 in rear. These are factory 16" rims. What do most folks run? I was thinking of the same sizes cuz it sits/looks pretty good? Thanks

I have a 245/45 up front and a 275/40 in the rear, but I have a 17 inch wheel as well.

With the stock 16's I'd probably run a 245/50 at all 4 corners.

The stock size is 225/55r16 for what that's worth.
