    Got that !

    255/45/20 in front and 295/30/22 in the back with 11 inch rim.

    No problem as long you do not run more than 5% diameter differance front and rear (overall diameter)

    Wow, that look really nice. I have a 300 and wondering if it would look as well as yours.

    I think that it looks better on a Magnum because of the body shape. Personally I think it would look weird on a 300.

    I've seen this type of thing pulled off on NSX's and other sports coupes.

    I think you`re right. That`s what I`ve been thinking. I just like a little shorter side wall than what I have. 285/40/20.

    BigAl's 300 looks good with 22's up front and 24's out back. If he hadn't already sold the wheels and tires, I think he has this wheel and tire set up for sale. He's getting some new USW's!

    The 22's and 24's definitely looks better than a 20 & 22 setup since it takes away from the sidewall heights more. The black spokes also brings less attention to the overall diameter of the wheels.

    When I was really giving thought to this, I wanted the front and rear side walls to be as close to the same height as possible. I noticed that the rear on this car is shorter than the front.

    It's probably due to making sure that the overall diameter of the wheels is close. His ride is pretty sick! I love the glass roof.

    If you're going to do it...I would make sure the thickness of the sidewall is similar on fronts and rears or else I think it'll look funny if you have thick sidewalls up front and rubber bands out back on the 22's.

    True that. I`ve been doing some sizing on tires with the tire calculator that Discount tires has on their website.

    The offset of the rear wheel drive and all wheel drive cars are different. So you would need a different offset than the ones on BigAl's car.
