Why did you go with 19s front and 20s in the rear if you don't mind me asking?
Also what size tire are you running?

getting sticky tires for the rear in 19 inch is a pain. only available in MT. No nittos. And the 20 inch up front would make my front tire thinner. Streets in my area are terrible. So I would be risking a busted rim. Thats also why the front tire is also tall at 245-45-19. my car is an auto so I will not be making any rounds at the track other than the 1/4 mile so I do ot mind the tall tire. 18" was not an option for me. I was looking at the '13 Cobra and it has the same setup and looks cool.

Nice they do look good though!
I'm looking at a set up like that myself, but I want to lower my car ALITTLE (about an inch) so I don't think I'm going to go with wheels that tall.
I might copy you (19's front and 20's rear)
I was thinking 20's all round but I don't want my car to look ..... Well so I don't affend anyone I'll leave if at that.
Or might go with 19's all round, if I can find a nice high performance tire for them.

I'm debating on what size rim to get. I have 19s but 20s sound like they fill up that fender gap and have cheaper tires. I do fear they will look ghetto though haha

If you have the chance look at the Avant Garde M310.

The finish is nicer, more solid and durable than the AMR's, also they are lighter and easier to balance. In term of look the are almost identical to the RTR, but whith the perfect offset

Here are mine, 19 x 8.5 up front and 19x 9.5 rear.

I love the stance with the more aggressive offsets on the AG wheels.

I agree... Those are nice. What's the size of your tires now, front and back? Also where to get and cost? I will be needing new wider tires and rims soon.

I like how the rear stance turned out with 285/40/20. May I ask what brand of tires you got for the rears?
