Guys,
While Tony's 185 size would work really well in West Texas where the
roads are long and straight I believe you would regret it in the area you
drive (especially the older roads in town). The skuffing, destruction of the
sidewalls and bending up of the flanged on the wells are not worth it.
One time I ran a combination of 175's in the front and 185's in the rear.
I ran about 8-10 mph faster than the gauge, added ground clearance under the
muffler (a +) and no damage to the front tires. You can still enjoy those
excursions into the hills and add some off road clearance if required.
I am currently running 175's all around and only miss the extra clearance
for the muffler when driving on washed out rock roads (not a too normal
practice but it can happen sometimes in rallys). The stock 155's look too
sall on the car.
