mainly cause i got a pretty good deal on them used, i wanted the 17 fronts for sure and this way the back has a little more sidewall so Im hopeing it might hook a little better than a 17 inch rear

mickey thomson 315/45/16 in the rear and 185/55/17 M&H radials in the front ( im pretty sure that size is right, its the only 17 they make).

I think those wheels are sweet! I know its kind of off topic but do you dd on that wheel combo, if so how do you like the handling with a narrow front tire like that, do you ever feel it skipping in semi fasts turns or have you ever locked it up under braking, im just curious because i was considering running a very similar combo. Again your car looks great,thanks.

its got a spool and and midwest anti roll bar in the back so it's not so good at turning. even with the spool the only time i really notice it is in a parking lot or turing from one road to another. I think with a posi the tires wouldnt be bad at all.
