I need a better front tire

I'm running Mt Et St R on the back in 325/50-15, and Nitto 05 285/19 fronts. The car does not want to drive in a straight line. I'm told I need smaller and narrower front wheels and tires.

99% of my miles (2500/yr) are on the local Mexico highways. Suggestions?

I just put these on the front of my car. Drove to and ran them at the track this weekend; DRs on back. Really happy with them.

Thanks. They might work for me. Only 1/2" shorter than my MT rears. Section width 9.65 in v. 13 in. for MTs.

How are they on the street?

Surprisingly good. I didn't have a lot of high hopes due to the low price, but they're pretty good.

I have MT ET Street R's on the rears, and I just put MT Sportsman on mine... she is built to ONLY GO straight... she goes VERY straight!

Tim Perdieu at Weld can hook you up. He's on FB or I can PM you his email.

Front wheels: 18x6
https://www.weldwheels.com/wheels/fo...MaAoeZEALw_wcB

Rear Beadlocks: 17x10

https://www.beefcakeracing.com/weld-...Qm9e3FaUpOIbXI

The tires are nothing more than the 305/45R17 rears and the MT Sportsman 18x6 (not sure the exact size, I will check when I get home)

Mine has Weld S81 rears, so I prefer those as fronts. My main issue now is which 28" OD tire to run on the front. I really don't need actual Skinnies, just less tread and Section
