Thanks Mike - I'm hopeful that we can take a serious shot at a good overall finish next year although I think that competition in Vintage is going to be pretty stiff next year on it's own.

Glad you started this thread James. Hope I wasn't too much of a PITA..

Ron, I was surprised how well it worked - I really have to give the guys credit.
That's a difficult question to find an answer to. The best that I found was that it should be equal or even a hair wider on the front. Anecdotally look around at any modern car and I think that you'll see that they are pretty evenly balanced. My goal - which at this point is a done deal - is a 305/30-19 Michelin Super Sport - it's as wide as a 315/30-18 with a 12.3" sidewall and 12" tread width. These are the same size as I ran on the back for OUSCI last year and may be our choice for rears as well.
