One thing you can do is play with the tire pressures front to back, a couple of pounds either way could make a difference, alignment is important. You can get a tire pyrometer and measure the temperature across the thread and see if you are making full contact and fine tune the alignment accordantly

For AX 245 font is way too skinny for our weight. Minimum of 265 or 275 up front. 295 or 285 rear on stockers is going to be best bet.

I've wondered if anyone has tried same size wheels/tires (295's maybe) on front and rear of the 370 and the results. Sure would be nice to be able to rotate tires front to rear and have it work better at the same time.

A number of people run square set-ups with either 285 or 295's. In order to rotate wheels front to rear you would need a set of wheels with the same offset (would need to be the offset required for the front) and spacers in the rear.
