Darkstar Race Star Wheel Questions

Hello,

I love the look of the big back tires, smaller fronts. I also just saw a picture of a mustang with Race Star 17s on the front and back.

The car was running 17x4.5 with 26 x 7.5R17, Radial Hoosier Front Runners is the front and 17x9.5 with P295/45R17 Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial in the rear.

The look is great, and I think it will look a bit different on my vert.

My question is, how 'drivable' is this combination of tire size and tire? Will it be terrible to drive around town, or only have certain limitations.

Any comments are more than welcome. Here is a pic of the stang in question. Click on the pic to enlarge it. Thanks as always for your comments.

I suppose I am asking 'why' you wouldn't drive them. What are the negatives? Thanks Hytek
