what size fronts go good with fat rear tires?

[smokin87]

Hey guys I'm making plans for new wheels and tires this summer. I know what I'm putting on the back. 275/60/r15 on 15x8 wheels with 4 to 4.25 inch back space. I don't want to run skinnys up front but I don't want them too big either. My car will see more street time than anything else. I'm thinking about a 15x6 wheel up front.

Any opinions about that wheel size? Any front tire recommendations?

I'd appreciate any info about what front wheel/tire combos people are running with these 275/60/15 rear drag radials.

Well if you don't want them too skinny in the front or too fat , how about the stock size 215-65-15, if you want a little fatter tire a 235-60-15 would work up front.

i run a 15x6 with a 205 75 15 up front. it looks like it belongs there perfectly.

im not a big fan of running skinnys anymore and i dont like the look of a wide front tire.

I run 215/70R-15s on 15x6 wheels up front.

Thanks, thats good info. When I got my car it didn't have the stock wheels and tires anymore. So I didn't even know what the stock size was. I think I'm on the right track now.

Stock size up front and 275/60-15's Nitto's on the back looks sexy :biggrin:
