Offset wheels, Not staggered - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Ebrunott · 12-25-2012, 04:09 AM

Is anyone running offset wheels? 17's up front, 18's in the back? I'm curious to see how this set up would look. I know it looks good on vettes, but our cars have very different body lines.

If so can you please post pictures? Thanks!

Oh he11 yea! That looks great. Awesome GT by the way. I was thinking of keeping my 17x8's in the front, getting some 18x10's in the back (painted of course to match the front) But i'm skeptical on how it will look...

If you like the drag look of a bigger rear tire with a smaller front then you might like the look.

It's not for me - I thought about this for a little bit as well and ended up deciding it wasn't a good idea and wouldn't look quite right. One of those things that would just kind of always nag at me knowing something was off.
