I have a 99' Ford Xplorer 5.0L AWD....
I want to get some new wheels and tires....
I have been looking into Helo MAXX 6 Black 18x9's and I think (but not sure) that I want to go with TOYO Proxes S/T but I heard they are very hard to balance...Like in some cases 7-8oz. of weight per WHEEL!!!
Well now for the question....I know some people are running 275/55/18 in the back but in the front of a 2 gen at stock height? I would go with a bit narrower up front but then with metric tires that changes my diameter and I can't be doing that since AWD.
Is anybody running 275/55/18 on the front of a stock height second gen?
Please post pics if so ^^^
And does anybody have any suggestions on other Street tires...I like the look and performance I here about the Toyo Proxes S/T but O man does that half pound of weight fore one wheel scary the **** outta me.
