Long time listener, first time caller...

I just happened to luck into a set of take-offs from a Porsche 968, 2 @ 205/55-16 and 2 @ 225/50-16 (for 16 X 7 Voxx wheels). The tires are now discontinued (D40 M2), but they are the best combination I have had on any of the 3 7xx cars I've had. I tried 225/50s all around and the fronts seemed a tad too wide (not that there's *that much* difference in size, but it does seem to make a difference).

HTH,
