How many people are running this combination? Does it look alright? I am worried the sidewall difference in size will look bad. Pictures would be great. Thanks.

What size wheels?

Seems to be a common enough combination of tire sizes for our cars with 9inch wide(front) x 10 inch(or 10.5) wide (rear).

It's the exact same size tires I run on 17x9 rims in the front and 17x10.5 in the rear. The sidewalls r the exact same width, 110.25mm.

I see what you mean. That does make sense. I was looking at it from a set measurement perspective and not a % of the width of the tire. So in actuality its the same. Thanks for explaining that. I appreciate it.

No prob man. I say go for it, those 315s look sick from behind and the 245s don't look too skinny in the front IMO

Im running 265/40 and 315/35 in the rear I think it looks perfect. 245 where too small for my likings. I'll post up some pics in a bit.

thanks for the advice, my reasoning for going with the 245's up front is because I just wanted to save some money and reuse my current tires.
