[DeTomaso] 335/35/17 versus 315/35/17 rear tires

> What's the difference in tire height?

The computed tire diameters are:

 335/35/17 26.23"
 315/35/17 25.68"
 225/45/17 24.97"
 235/45/17 25.32"
 245/45/17 25.68"
 245/40/17 24.71"
 245/45/16 24.68"

What size fronts are you guys running with the 315/35/17 rears?
I'd like something wider than 225's and the 245/45's are too
tall compared to the rear.  Perhaps 235/45/17 or 245/40/17?

Do you have any pictures from the side showing the tires?
