FR500 wheel questions

[blkMach2003]

how would 17's in the front and 18's in the back look on our machs?

[Mustang9668]

I think it looks really good personally. Its what I was going to do before I found my wheels for such a good deal.

[blkMach2003]

yea thats what I thought.. would any one have any pics of it?

[Mustang9668]

Not a Mach but I have always thought this looked car looked great. Stance, wheels, blacked out, its just sexy.

thats nice.. what is that still a 45 on the front and 35 on the back?
whats the best tire combo on a 17x9 18x10 w/o fitment issues or rubs

[gearhead69]

I have 17x9 cobra Rs on my 94 cobra with 275/40/17 all the way around with no rubbing issues. I think 255s would be better tho IMHO. I just put 18X10s with 285/35/18s on the back of my Mach and they fit beautifully. I could probably go to a 315 on back, but not sure if it would rub.

[blkMach2003]

well how would it look if I had 245/40/17 front and 285/30/18 in the back??
the thing that worries me is the difference of 10 on the height of the tire.. not sure what this will look like

[DSPTurtle]

Doing the math shows a 13mm difference, less then half an inch. I woudl be surprised if you could even really tell without someone pulling out a tape measure :)

[blkMach2003]

true Just little nervous on getting it but ill see.. whats the math to figure it out?

[gearhead69]

Like DSPTurtle said..I don't think you will notice it. Should be a sweet lookin set up:smokin:

I just used the springs to get the nose down look instead of different size wheels.

Right after the springs were installed.

After some time to settle.

Blk, did you get your wheels yet? I am anxious to see this set up on your Mach. That black GT is sweet. Nicest looking GT I have seen. You have to post pics and details when you are done. Good luck!
