Default 18s on the rear 17s on the front?!!

I know that some people fit wider rims and tires to the rear but
has anyone fitted or ever seen a larger diameter wheel on the rear?

if so are there any reasons for doing this other than for looks?

if anyone has pics that would be great

I had a set of 19's rear and 18's front on my 2000 Z-28
The car sat real mean looking. A perfect posture.

my best friends dad has an '03 mach 1 and he just put black cobra 18x8's on the front and 19x10.5's on the back, and it gives it such a badass stance. it definately makes the car look super mean. ill try and see if i can get ahold of him for a picture, but it definately looks good. no one in their right mind could say that it doesnt. ill work on those pictures for yall.

A member on the site, if i remember correctly, has a new edge with 18 FR500s back and 17 fr500 front. The car is a competition orange color i believe. Maybe he/she will chime in
