Default 18s in back 17s in front

I'm about to put some y2ks on my Z. These are OEM and I was just wondering what their going to look like. I'll need to drop the car for sure but wouldn't it be necessary to drop it down in the front a little more to give it the right look? Any info or pictures you could provide me would be muy excellente!!


Gracias,
Justin

I personally do not like the look, since the F-Car needs front and rear tires that have the same OD, so the front sidewall is taller than rear.

275/40's up front
295/35's out back

IF you can find them I suggest 53MM in the rear, but I heard they are very hard to find. I assume you're going with Z06's because they don't make Y2K C5's in those sizes.

I ran 56MM front and rear it didn't look as good was my 17x11 w/ a 50MM, but they looked pretty good and I had no problems.
