I don't know if this helps much since it's on a F@%D, but this truck was at a show a few weeks back.

Re: Anybody running 15" tires on Front and 16" tires on back? Pics?
Pesonally, I think a 15/16 looks good. Afew years back, I used to see alot of cars run 14/15 combos. I think anytime an offset combo looks odd is with more than 1" diameter difference. I say this mainly referring to the 14 -18" varieties. Alot of folks run 18/20 and 20/22 combos that don't look odd. What I'm mainly getting at is say a 15/17 combo. I've never thought that looked right.
A 15/16 combo would look great and you would have many more tire choices. The biggest problem with 16" wheels is available tire choices. I know for a fact, if you wanted to go with a BFG T/A Radial, you could run the 285/60/16 rear with a 235/70/15 tire on a 15x7 rim. I've actually considered this combo on my truck. Are you willing to sell your other two 16x8's?

If I go this route yes I would like to sell the TT II's along with the tires (285x60x16). I could then put the 2" drop springs back on the front along with the 2" drop spindles that I already have and have the lines that I am looking for.

Any other pics of 15/16 wheel combos? I am 95% sure this is the way I will be going. The more I drive the Circuit Rider the more I find the 16x8 front tires/wheels not very driver friendly.
