I did a separate winter tire setup for the last 6 years on my 15GT here in Chicago.You're an informed learned guy with the suspensions I've noticed. Riddle me this... A magnaride mustang that came from the factory with 255/40/19s up front and the taller 275/40/19s in the rear... any upsides to putting a set of identical 275s in the front to match the rears and square it up? Down sides? Not a track attack car. Just a guy driving around running spirited errands in a 4 season shitty locale.
I've read your meticulous posts in the past on this subject. But please oblige me on the pros and cons of that particular riddle.
Took the summer setup off Dec-March.
I am not forced to drive in the snow, so I only go out when it's dry.
I found the winter tires to be very noisy and squishy, basically took the enjoyment out of my driving.
On my Mach 1 I will be doing continental DWS all-season tire/wheel setup for the 4-5 months of winter.
Like Tony, I am also debating 275's on 9.5"x19" wheels all the way around for the all-seasons. Seems like they will last longer since I can rotate.
Is tramlining more of an issue with a 275's up front compared to a 255?
