Default Wheels

So after looking at pics in the March issue of MM&FF, I found the wheels I want... question is, would it look stupid with 18x9.5s and 275s all around instead of like 275s back and 18x8.5s and 245s front?

For some reason, I can get 275s and 18x9.5s all around cheaper than doing different sizes, if I want to stay with the same tire brand/type all around... I just don't know if it'll look weird with that wide tires in front...

Yeah, it's a bit cheaper....but in my opinion, it looks off. If it was me I'd just dish out the extra cash. Just my 2 cents!

I agree with the others....it looks mean as hell when you put the wider meats out back. Spend the extra coin.

x2 Anything wider than 9" up front is way too wide and makes the wheel stick out and look like shit.
