How many of you are running mismatch tires and why?
I have a hart time founding match set for my car 315's for back and 275's for front.
Goodyear is about only choice I have right now ,and I am not to crazy about them. I love BFG KD's but 315's is really hard to found.
Anyone have any sugestions.......?
Thanks.

I'm running Yokohama ES100 tires on the front 255/40/17

because the tires i had were discountinued.

I'm running Yokohama avs db s2 tires on the rear 275/40/17 (the discountinued)

and when my rears need replacing, i'll switch over to the ES100s
 
I run 255 KDW2's in front and 295KDW2's in the rear.. i like the:

Look ( reason for fatty rears (staggered))
Extra Grip
Improvment in Handling

I will only buy KDW or Goodyear Eagle GD1's ( i think thats what they are called )
 
I have mismatched for the same reason. I wanted a 315 street tire instead of a drag radial and couldnt find matching 275s. The shop checked around and found some that are close enough you cant really tell they arent they same unless you come up and look for it.
