Default Butler FRONT wheels and tires.
I'm finally going to replace my Centerline 15" rims and tires.

I believe Butler sold/suggested 10" wide front rims and 12" wide at the back.

I'm most interested in knowing if anyone has used a narrower front rim and was any appreciable difference noticed, like better steering because of the reduced scrub.

I'd appreciate all pros and cons and also guidance on selecting 17" and 18" diameter rims and what brand/size/rating tires you selected.

For the Butler guys with the FastCars IFS I'd be interested in your selection.

Thanks,

Arthur
