Who's running different height rims, front to back

[SnwMnkys]

Anyone running different height of rim between your front and back tires? Im contemplating on running 18" rears and 17" fronts. I want to run Bullitts or Torq Thrust Ms and it seems like there are better backspacing options for the 17s than there are for the 18s. Plus you can run a 17x8. I cant seem to find an 18x8 in either rim. If anyone is doing this, do you notice the diference visually? Anyone have any pictures?

Sorry man, cant help on the tires, jus gotta say, absolute sick ass car, paint, body, everything is sick...

What was your reason for running staggered heights? Do you notice the difference at all?

 

[blown65]

I ran them so the sidewall would be the same height but have a rake to the car. I had 15's and 14's prior many yrs ago thru highschool. I guess it just carried over.

Has 15's all the way around now, going to sell those wheels since they just collect dust now.

tcrote5516~ what year is your car? i like the way yours looks and the sizes are the sizes i was considering but dont know if i can tuck those 18X9.5 under the rear of my 66, but i would really like to!

I may end up going the staggered route then, cant really tell a difference in height.

Is your car finished tcrote5516? I dig the half mad max half show car look.

FireManSam: Its a 67. I did some custom work on the headlight buckets and some more custom sheet metal work for the side scoops. 65-66 is a little tighter in the rear then the 67s but you can make anything fit...its just a matter of work. The rears are made for the 96+ Mustangs with a 1/4" spacer and part of the bump stop cut down. I also have the rear dropped 2". No rubbing front or rear.

LOL I call it color changing paint...it goes from one shad of black to another

Its going into the booth next month for paint...but I cant drive it anywhere without someone telling me I need to leave it flat black. I also have a bagged pickup I have left flat grey for 2 years with an "under construction" decal
