17s and 18s

Triple A · January 17th, 2009, 01:14 PM

is it possible to run 17 inch wheels in the front and 18s in the back?
or will it throw off the speedometer?

Yes and no. Just size your tires right to keep the overall diameter the same.

Good luck!

thank you
i dont plan on getting any rims soon (i will eventually), but ive had this idea for a while and ive never heard of anyone else doing it before and i thought it would look cool and have a meaner stance

the roush stage 3's are awsome, even though the rears should have a small lip

Getting bigger rims the same size all around will throw off your speedo anyway. if thats the look you want go for it. I have 18's (15's are stock) and the speedo is close to 5mph off
