ok, cool looking....but for a good ride ?? Nope !
ball-joints, bushings, steering arms, the complete suspension must hard work with this tires.
245 or wider tires in front ? never.
you will lose handling and steering quality and short life suspension parts.

this is my view about big front tires



now you can say: this guy is crazy and have no experience, he lives in Europe.
but fact is: not allways is bigger the better way
i wonder why vettes, vipers, and some high end Europeans run a large rear along with a large but staggered front tire, all bigger then 245??? please tell? those cars seem to work very well, and if i remember right, most of these firsts gen camaros have late model corvette susp.. please tell us all how its going to be so much harder on susp parts, etc?????????????????????
