I'm looking at some BBK springs which will lower the car about 1.5 inches. I'm also looking to get larger rims on my 02 Mustang GT. I want 18x9's. Will these size rims rub on the front? I know they will be ok for the rear.

They should be ok. As long as you stick with 275/35 18 tires

Thanks for the information. I want to try to keep same size wheels and tires all around so I can rotate them.

I had bbk's on my old gt, running 275/40/17s. I had room to bump up at least to a 19 w/o worrying about rubbin'

Wow, 19s. Would that be 19s even for the front wheels with BBKs and no rubbing?

if your back tires last long enough to be rotated then you're not driving it right.

Hey now money does not grow on trees. I just want my car to look good and sound good. When I make a little more money, then I can drive like I want to.
