Putting smaller tires on the rear, large on front

[Evenflow]

Rear (Snow Tires) 225/45/17
Front (Stock gatorbacks) 245/45/17

Will I have any problem running these tire sizes. I've had people tell me it will screw up my rear end but there is not much of a huge difference between 225/245. Also, I do not have ABS or T/C.

The worst that would happen is it may throw off the accuracy of your speedometer.

It will not hurt anything.

as long as you dont mix sizes on the rear you'll be fine

Where did you find a Mustang wheel that fits such slim tires?

Best tire size for the winter is 225-60-R16. My Dad used those on his old 95 GT one winter. Pot holes develop in the winter, and you are better having 4 inches of tire between the wheel and the road than 2 inches!! Weight also helps dramaticly so add a couple hundo in the trunk. He used bundles of shingles.

the only real issue I see is your car won't stop or turn in conditions where snow tires are required.
