Tire Sizes on 22'' rims

What tire sizes are you guys using on your 22'' rims??

I have 9,5'' wide fronts and 11'' wide rears... (rears with 30mm - 1 1/4'' spacers)

Wonderin' what tires you guys are running...?

I am running 265/35 front and 295/30 rear.........

I think the rears look a 'tad' skinny, even with the spacers. But there is less flex of the tire on the rim, so the response of the car is crispy.

Nope, why? Its a 1% difference in circumference..

If you have the org. tire sizes, but new at the front and worn at the rear it counts for the same difference.
