Also, only the rears are concave .... it drives me nuts to see concave rear wheels while the fronts are flat

just like the fronts on the Milans, the SC-5ives, and even the CV-3s. If you guys wanna circle jerk each other that's fine and all, I won't hold you back, but I'm still set on getting the Stance wheels if Jay @ Hypermotive can make it happen. The fronts btw, most def are not FLAT. they are concave too, how concave depends on you. As you can get this in a 8.5", 9" 10" and 10.5" on them, .

Also these guys ran a 20x10 up front.... http://www.stangtv.com/tech-stories/...ith-forgeline/

Makes me think about the possibilities of a square 20x10 setup. I may have to test fit my 10" torq thrusts on the front of my car now...

concave front, MORE concave rear, i prefer that just slightly to a fully square setup.

And Danielle, you've already had issues with that.
How about on your next wheels you get a set that fits properly?
Matt's car from S197 had the 20x10 wheels in the rear and I don't recall him saying they rubbed at all. And he was fairly low too.

wider tire = the potholes have to be bigger to eat them. maybe not a sound theory at all...

I'm running a 275/35 front and a 295/35 rear with the Stance SC5. They will look great on your car and they are super easy to clean for those who think the notch at the end of the spoke is going to be tough. Might I add the matte black face a gloss black lip is a minor difference but pretty cool. Diva get what you want, I did, and receive compliments everywhere.

A lot of rubbing but not because of the +35 offset.
