Default Tires

Hello everyone.... I have a 95 gt 5.0 auto and i need new tires!!! i have the cobra r rims.. but i have no clue in what tires to get. i have the Kumho 275 in back and 255 in front should i stick with the different sizes or put 275s all around? I do live where we do get mild winters but i dont have to drive it in the winter.. thanks

Default RE: Tires

Personally I would replace what sizes you have with the same. Keep the smaller tire on the front and the wider on the rear. That should keep you from rubbing the tire in the fenderwell. So yeah, I would keep the 275 in the rear and the 255 in the front. Thats the setup I used on my 96gt and I had no complaints.
