thinking of getting new rims.. tire question
im thinking of getting these some rims, that come with tires.. the tire size is: Rear tire 275 40 18 / Front tire 245 45 17
will this look stupid and have a whole bunch of tire sticking out of the wheel well?
anyone have these size tires, and can give me a picture from the back?
thanks

i dont like the look of staggered rims. either go all 17's or all 18's. I have KDW 275/40/18 on all 4 corners. I love them and they don't stick out. if you get the same tires as me you'll need to get your speedo calibrated

275-40-18 is a little too tall. should be 275-35-18 to match stock diameter. and 245 is pointless if youre upgrading rims and tires. why stay stock width or smaller?
But like stated before do one size all around. Staggered just doesnt look right on a f-body.
