I understand what look you're going for but personally I'd keep the tires the same size. It would just look odd to have some big meaty tires on the rear then see the front ones burn out if you ever do that kind of thing. I like bigger tires on the rear, just not on fwd cars.

I think if you just put a spacer in the rears to make them stick out a little more than the front it would give it a more aggressive look while not making the tires any bigger than the back.

you can't go too wide with 20". what he's running^^^ would be an ideal setup if you were to run 20" wheels. if you go with 10" wide your mc would look like my jeep after i install the 33" mt. it will stick out a lot, pass the fenders. my old mc tires were 255/45/18. 9" wide biotch! well you saw it when you try to race me, but i blew you away lmfao. im sorry but did the m90 whining scared you or was it the loud exhaust?

what rustang? dude you don't even have the transmission for it yet. yeah you might as well sell it cuz it's probably cover with 9" of dust from sitting all these years in your bat cave. a house? i thought you already have one (your work). save your money just pitch a tent at your work and call it a day after all you like there everyday might as well call it home sweet home. hey btw aren't you suppose to be working instead of surfing the web?
