Cuz it's easier to ask and in anyone's defense, the search feature leaves a little to be desired at times. Justify it however ya want, you still came off harsh IMO!!!

On one hand, Adder, you did seem pretty harsh.

BUT, in Adder's defense, there has been A LOT of misinformation on MF in the past few weeks (at least) that I've found. I don't usually chime in unless I KNOW something, but it seems like some people nowadays will tell you something they heard and pass it off as written law. I try to correct things when I know better and have time, but it gets overwhelming very quickly and then there's the reposts that didn't look 3 threads down to find the answer to their question.......[sm=rant.gif]

...BTW (back on topic), I'm running 245/45/16's all the way around on my 16x7 ponies and it only rubs a little at full lock.

I've got 245/50/16s on my car. Stock ponies as well. I like the look of 225s on the front and 255s out back. But you should go with a smaller aspect ratio to keep the wheels from looking too tiny.

Adder knows his $hit, but hes way too cocky about it. Thanks for stepping up, PRO.

I wouldn't go wider than a 245 on a 7" rim simply b/c it won't give you any more foot print. No logical reason to do so. Now on a wider rim = different story.

i get cocky because people ask me why something does whatever it does, or what is wrong.. and i answer them. THEN they ask 18 more times, just to find out i was right the first time.
