running the same profile size front to rear
is there somethign wrong by running this set up?
on tirerack.com it said for me to run 225 45 in the front
and 255 40 in the rear
is there a reason to run different profile size front front to rear?
with a 45 rear offset i was also told it will run the rear bumper fender area?amd was recommended to run 245 instead?
i wanna get this solved b4 i buy tires since im plannning to go with k700 or RA01

its to keep the overall diameter of the wheel/tire assembly as close to the same as possible. if you ran a 40 series up front and/or 45 series in the back the handling slightly decreases and the ABS might get thrown out of whack.
