Default New Rims and Tires on my 2012 Mustang Coupe

I put some $139 18x9 American Muscle Chrome Deep Dish Bullitt Wheel rims with $186 255/45-18 Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires on the 2012 Mustang Coupe today.

255/45 on a 9" wide rim?
Would shoulda got the 275/40-18s to match the 9" wide rims.
They are looking kinda poochie. Like the rims are just too wide for the tire.
Wonder what that does to your Extreme Contact during cornering?
That looks like a curbage nightmare with no rubber inbetween you and
the curb, just the lip of the rim.
The deep dish on the front just looks all sorts of out of place.
Good thing this set-up didnt cost you an arm and a leg.
I gotta call it like I see it...
