Tony is right.  The 2000 Mustang GT I was referring to does have 245/45-17
on all corners.  I think I meant to say 2000 Corvette which has 245/45-17 on
the front and 275/40-18 on the rear.  Staying in theme, a 2000 BMW 750iL has
255/45-18's  as an option (one size up from the allroad tires).

The late model GT's get the 235/55's. The earlier (94-04) GT's get
245/45's as standard equipment. All GT's have the V8. 18's are also an
option on the 05 up GT's.

I've owned two Mustangs, both with 245/45 17's on all four corners.
Both were '98's. My Winter tires were 225/50-16's, IIRC.
