Welcome, nice clean car you got there.

But the size of the front tires just throws the whole thing off. (imo)

my car was running something like that at one time.

I bought it with really low profile tires (2xx/40/17s) possibly 2xx/35/17s, then replace the rear w/ more meaty tires (225/50/17s).

Then got new tires for the front (225/50/17s) to match the back.

Then last week I got some even meatier tires for the back.

Not a big difference, from 225/50/17 --> 225/55/17s

Man i wish i could drive up there but im still tryin to get everything squared away with the motor, im getting a studder under med to heavy load and its driving me nuts. I think my timing is off on the cas but i dont have a light to verify. As for the tires they were all the same size as the back but some idiot thought it would be funny to cut them and those were the only ones the used tire place had. just waiting on my taxes to get a new set. front are 215/40/17 back are 225/45/17.
