I like wider in front, but way wider in back. Thats why I went with 315's in the back, ( 17 rim ) But its all a personal preference. I think as a true muscle car, then wider in back is better, gives you the look and functionality of the muscle car era. Same width all around has advanages as IMPORT said, for rotating tires, but if you do any burnouts, or peel outs then its not going to matter anyways. Most good tires nowadays are directional tires and can only be rotated from back to front on the same side wich makes no difference if you have a problem with tire wear. Mine wear perfectly even. So I dont need that advantage. So it WOULDNT be an advantage to me, now, when I replace tires, I only replace the back ones, as the fronts are usually good. The backs wear out far quicker than the front do as I drive like a retard most times in the Z, so its cheaper for me to just get the backs.
