Default Staggered wheels 19" front & 20" rear ?
Has anybody given that a shot? Any downsides? I think it would look cool anyhow.

thanks!

Meh I think it would look funny IMO. However, you could run a 255/45/18 in the front and something like a 295/45/18 which gives it that staggered look. I run the same setup.

it can be done, and it looks kinda cool, if you do the tire sizing right.

alternatively you can buy my 20s : )

Thanks man, they are eibach pro-kit springs. Pictures do the tires no justice, they hug the fenders on both sides.

I've thought about that in the past. My Ex-wifes Chrysler Crossfire runs 18/19's

Front Tire Size P225/40ZR18
Rear Tire Size P255/35ZR19


Looks better in person than it does in the picture. Not so sure it would look as good on the Mustang. It doesn't have that angled forward design.
