    185's in the front and 195's in the back on stock 14 inch rims for right now. I have some 16 inch Torque Thrusts waiting for new tires before I put them on. Will probably put 215's in the back and 205's in the front or something similar to give it a little rake.

    215/70/14 in front on factory 6"x3.5" bs rims.
    245/60/14 out back on same rims.
    Poverty caps and trim rings all around.
    This is set up on both my Mavs.

    I intend to go bigger sooner or later.
    I keep changing my mind though.

    I like these 2 combos at the moment:
    205/65/15 front, with 5"w x 2.5" bs or 6"w x 3.5" bs
    255/50/16 rear on 7"w x 4" bs

    OR

    205/70/15 front, same rim
    255/60/15 rear on 7"w x 4" bs

    Here are pics of the cars with the 14" combo:

    One car will be running 16 inch Crown Vic Interceptor wheels, the other, 17 inch Bullitts.


    I'd like to put a set of "Old School" 15X7 or 8' American Torq-Thrusts on one of them sometime in the future.
