looking to get a set of black steelies with some snow tires for the winter, probably just buy some crown vic wheels, and i'm wondering if I have to keep the 235's on the front and 245's on the rear or if i can just run 235's all around for the winter?

The black steelies are 16" wheels so your stock tires will not fit on them. Check www.tirerack.com they sell package deals for winter use.

We run steelies w/225 front, 235rear to keep the stagger. I believe they are 16" wheels. Pirelli Scorpion M&S worked well last year.

if you have TC, you will need to turn it off. I left on, the car senses the wrong rotational variation and cut power at about 40 mph. My summer wheels/tires actually have smaller rear tire dia than the front.
