what tires to run?

[one90gt]

I'm going to be picking up some new tires soon and wanted some opinions on what to get.
The rears are going on a 15x10 rim, and i wanted to get the MT et street radials in 325/50-15.
I know that if I should also run radials on the front but am not sure what to get. The rim is a 15 x 4. I've seen mixed reviews on alot of tires with some saying that I would just need to switch everything to bias ply tires.
My question.... looking to run a 165/80-15; would an 87 load rated tire (kumho) be safe for the front of a fox? This will be ran on the street mostly.

Is anyone running radials on the front for skinnies? If so what ya got?

I think just about everyone is running those radials or something similar for their skinnies. Bias ply tires are not very common, unless you are talking front runners from MT and they are pricey.

I have always run radials for front runners. "race" front runers such as the MT,Hoosier, or others will be lighter however I do not think they are DOT rated.

MT sportsman fronts are DOT approved and bias ply tires.
