That's still pretty skinny...on a Camaro...I thought they used similar sized tires front and rear. 205 is skinnier than what I use on the front of my S2000.

I think he's gonna try to get the front to jump off the ground maybe? that's my plan...I'm gonna run 305's out back and a 225 up front, maybe skinnier later on. Good luck on your setup! thanks for mentioning tire weight too...don't think i would've given that much thought.

well, another thing is the height, I just figured a 40 series sidewall would look kinda funny. I have 185/15's on the front of my nova w/ 4 inch rims.

I Like my Falken GR Betas thus far. Great all around. We'll find out how they do in the ice if we get any =]
