anybody running these type of tires on there LS? I cant find the stock tire size. Which tire size do you all recommend, in Nexen tires that is. Im interested in these tires b/c I had a set on my MarkVIII, and the car drove really nice with these tires. Also pictures would be great if anybody can share.

I had N3000s before when had the 20s and now I have N7000s, these look better and seam to be quieter than the N3000s.

Well, you could go 245/45/17 or 255/45/17 (some tires in this size look funny on 7.5" wide wheel) or maybe 245/50/17 but these will be a little taller than your stock ones.

I'm running the Nexen N3000 245/40/18 and I absolutley love them. I had Pirelli P Zeros on the stock rims, and I definitely prefer the Nexens. FYI they were $420 balanced and installed.

I also have the N3000 245/40/18. I like them, my man Hyelife recommended them so I give him credit. I have not had any problems and they run smooth. Here are a few pictures. What are you running on stock 16 or 17"?

I am running Nexens 245-45-17 and they are pretty good tires and they do last a while... so i would recommend them A++++

yeah but your car is lowered, so you can run the 45's with no problem but my car is stock height, so what size tires should i go with.

Thats no problem since when i bought the tires the car was stock and the other size that is just the same as a 235-50-17 is the 245-45-17 that its recommended by Lincoln
