Noticed my Spyder has 225/50/ZR15 fronts rather than the 225/45/ZR16 fronts as the specification on the factory website for the model. Rears are as advertised - anyone else have this?

The old sports and spyder could have either 15 or 16in wheels as std..... the car was orginally designed for these so unless you want to fit bigger brakes there is no real reason to change.

Thanks, that explains it then.

Actually I prefer the more retro look of the 50 height front bloaters... so I'm considering running 15 inch rears also! - doesn't look quite right as it is with 17/35s on the back.
