So getting new front tires soon. I'm running the 325 555rs on the back on my 15x10 racestars. 17x8 (I think, I know it's same size as stock) wheels up front. How wide can/should I go up front? I have 235/55 on there now. Keep in mind it's a daily all-weather car. I do put snows on in the winter.

I'd like to know the same thing. I'm running 15X4 Weld RT-S wheels on the front of mine. How wide and tall a tire could I put on my 2007 Roush ?

RIP - You will be missed
255/50-17 for 8" wide wheels. 8" is the minimum width for that size, and anything wider that isn't a light truck tire will need a wider wheel.

For 4" wide wheels I'm not sure you can even find radial tires narrow enough any more unless they're specifically drag-race skinnies that you probably shouldn't be running on the street anyway.
