that would look kinda weird, but not good at all IMO
Rubberbands in the rear, with some healthy tire up front won't be very easy one the eyes.

You'd need different size tires in the front and back then. You'd have really tiny tires up front and large ones in the back. Your car would sit really low in the front too.

18's and 19's would be much better IMO.

If you go deep-dish on the rear, a larger rim than that on the front is a good idea. My setup (19's with 8.5 front and 10 rear) makes the rear rim looker smaller than the front. It's an optical illusion, because of the dish, but once you see it, you never get over it.

Haven't seen 18's with 20's, but if I'd known then what I know now, I'd have considered 19's with 20's.
