Like it states.. I got a set of 9x16 factory fuchs that are being redone. I want to get tires mounted while they are at the shop. Thinking 225-50-16 front on 7x16 and 245-50-16's on 9x16's rear. Any one running something like this that can share if any issues please. I know it all depends but I kinda need to make a choice fairly quick here.
I'm gonna get a set of RD steel flares to install so I can work them a little if need be.

Thanks,

i'm running 245x40-17 on my 9" Fikse. I was able to fit 255x40x17 Kumho race tires. My Michelin Pilots have an outer curb rib that rubbed on the fender, so I had drop down to 245
