Default Tire size ok?

I have s03 225/50/16 in the rear right now, I'm thinking about putting them up front and going with a set of 245/50/16 or 245/45/16 - Would this be ok?

Just wondering if I would experience any problems with ABS or anything like that... can the rims take the sizes?

Thanks, Luke!

Go with the 245/45/16 in the rear and you'll be fine. 245/50/16 will lower your FD and throw your speedo and odo off a bit.

Thanks, but what about the fronts?! I have s03 225/50/16 in the back right now, can I move those to the front when I get the 245/45/16 s03 in the back?

So my setup would look like this:

Front: 225/50/16
Rear: 245/45/16

would there be a fitting problem in the front, or can the rims handle 225 s03 in the front?

Wheels can fit fine. You might have possibly rubbing issues, not sure tho. If you're not lowered, you won't have any probs.

The 225/50R16 and 245/45R16 works fine. In fact depending on the specific tire these sizes actually work best.
If I can help let me know.
