17's in Front...18's in Rear

[Meeks]

Hi Fellow PTers-

Does anyone have this wheel setup (17x7 in front and 18x8 in the rear)? If so, Please post pics or e-mail to me. Thanks much.

Keep same width all the way around. Front wheels are driving wheels. Wider back tires would only result in more tire touching ground, creating friction (better grip) but also could hurt gas mileage.

FWD cars already will understeer like crazy. If you put more stick on the rear it will just push more.

look under PT of the week
scoll down to Lonnie and Ronda from Oregon, driving a silver custom color with that kind of wheel set up

I just checked again and sorry, both wheels were 17" although front is 7 and rear is 8". My mistake but look at it anyway.
I think this a super cool cruiser
