What size tires are you guys running with front runners?
I plan on running 15x8 in the rear with a 275/60-15 and need a front tire that will work with the 275/60/15. My car has traction control and I don't want to have problems with it. I would like to run the 165/80-15s but they are only a 26 inch tall tire.

good luck.
btw I'm not sure you can even find those radial tires anymore...I looked when buying my front runners and none were to be found.

why would you have too run a 28" in the front?? Not only will it look goofy but there is no reason too, my car has both traction and ABS and I run a 26x7.5x15 MT sportsman in the front.

I bought a rear end with 4.10 gears so I am looking t otry and run a little taller tire than my 275/40-17s so that the gears are a little better on a street driven car. I have had a lot of people tell me the 4.10s will be tolerable in my a4 on the street and then some say it will suck.
