If this thread is turning into who wears the biggest rubbers, you guys are giving
way too much info.
Rob,
As you saw on my car, I have the same tire set up as Bill. 245/45/17 front, 275/40/17 rear on my FFR with no problem. With the 3 link I have, installed by our friend Tony and myself, my handling is about as good as it will get for a live axle. My car actually understeers slightly, but that is only at the very limits, and it is easy to bring the tail around, so I think the FFR handles very well. I don't know much about the A&C handling, but I think Roscoe might know about that. He has open tracked his.
