19" rear, 18" front.

i've had a search around but cant find anyone thats looked into it before.

 

does anyone run, or does anyone have any pictures, of anyone running a larger dia rear wheel set?

 

now I dont mean to increase the rotating diameter (i.e to mess around with the traction cntrl).

 

So, the front wheel can stay as its 225/45/18,

but the rear could be a choice of 2 larger sizes and still be within 0.5% rotating size with the right tyre. (sizes are an EXAMPLE only)

 

245/40/18

245/35/19

245/30/20

 

im just looking at this from a costmetic view, i cant seem to find any decent picutres on any car that runs this, except for thick rear drag cars.

although the Corvette due an inch bigger rear. that looks nice :)

 

I just want to know how it would look.

**Photoshop opportunity ** lol

The USA had a version that ran 19" rears and 18" front Nismo wheels, a member bought a set a while ago (cant remember his name though)

 

Cosmetically i would just run 19's :)

 

The only reason, in my opinion, for running 18" front is for less rotational mass, nothing to do with cosmetics :)

Thats a 18 front and 19 rear, its actually difficult to notice due to the design of the wheels (they are different from each other) :)

 

Good setup but pricey on the rears if you like going sideways ...... ;)
