anyone know of a tire specs site?
I need to buy new tires and I want wide tires on back and not so wide tires on front yet my van has antilock brakes and the tires have to be the same hight. So if any of you guys knows of a site that has that kind of info I could use it. Thank you, Mark

Re: anyone know of a tire specs site?
Try this 'calculator'. It allows you to play around with various parameters of tire sizing. It's not perfect as all manufactures vary a bit, but it's pretty close.

Re: anyone know of a tire specs site?
Your best bet is to go to the tire manufacturers' website and see how they spec them out. As has been said the "nominal" size is just that...nominal. Even a slight difference in diameter won't matter to the ABS system.
