Which are the front tires?

I purchased a set of Blizzards from another S2K owner that I mounted on my car today. Can someone confirm that I put the correct ones on the front & back? They are 205/55/16 and 225/50/16.

The stock tires are easy to tell apart. These. not so much. I put the 205/55's on the front.

That's correct. The wider ones (225s) go in the rear.

The reason you can easily tell the stock fronts vs. the stock rears is that the actual measurement of the OEM SO-2 rear tire actually measures closer to a 245 tire width........thus making it easier to see the difference.
