205/55/16 front on 7" Fuchs
245/45/16 rear on 8" Fuchs.
'81 SC

There were some helpful but skeptical warnings on this board about running the 245's on 8 inch rims, however when I checked the tire manufacturer's website (Toyo) for the specs, it indicated that 8 inch was their ideal width for this tire. I took the gamble (I have to admit that I was really swayed by the look) and so far, so good. Good grip and predictable (street only, so far), but who knows about same size rim with another tire.
