215/60/17 in front maintains factory rake and keeps the trac and ABS functional

Plus the front size fits the spare location even the mini spare hook works with the 03 up offset

Blizzaks are awesome, these cars are like tanks in the snow with them! Hopefully we have a similar winter like last year! We wont even need them! Haha

Thanks!! Those fronts look puny next to the rear tires. I tried for Altimax snows but the rear ones were rated Q plus not in stock. I could have gotten the 225/60/17 in the Blizzaks but there are more choices in the 215/60/17 size in general.

I still plan to use the Lincoln next winter but it will be nice to be ABLE to take out the Marauder if needed plus now I do have a full size spare.
