Replying to: old89lsc (Aug 04, 2008 6:12 pm) I would just like more clearance on the back, and the Freestar sits very low at the back. All tires are 235/60/16's and I was wondering if there would be any harm in putting 235/75/16's on the rear. Thoughts..... Replies to this message: dtownfb (Aug 29, 2008 9:02 am)
