Default Anyone have DD rear rims and regular front rims?

I have a set of staggered 18/17" Corvette C5 wheels on my Trans Am.

I am thinking about moving my current rear 18's to the front and getting Deep dish rear C5 same style wheels on the back so I can have 18's all around and a wider rim/tire combination in the rear.

Would this look weird or is it a common thing?

I think it would give a more aggressive look to the car. I have same set up but in 17 inch zr1's. 18 inch would look great just be sure to get the widest tire to slam up in the back to finish off the look. My set up is OE DD zr1 17x11 in rear with 315's and stockers 17x9 up front... Very common to do mod good luck with Ur choice!

I was also thinking it would make it look aggressive! I will probably also get the 315's in the rear! Would you be able to post some pics on here if your car with that setup? Thanks!!

If your thinking 18x10.5 rears i would invest in a small spacer to push them out a but,from what i have seen it looks better,i dont think the normal c5 wheels and dd c5 look alike?do they?

Definitely, I already do have a spacer in the back which really helps complete the look!

Thanks for posting those pics guys. I really like how you can't really tell from a side view but when you see it from an angle it really shows!
