Default 2005 "Deep Dish" 18x9 Chrome

Ok, so I'm looking for a heavy raked look with an 18/20 combo. Ihave already purchased the 20x8.5 "deep dish". Now I need the 18x9 for upfront. I want to make sure the lip and spoke style matches the rear. If the lip & dish upfront is bigger than the back it will look awkward. I purchased the rear from another site, but would like to get the fronts at mustangtuning if I can get some help here. They look to be the same wheel as this guys http://www.mustangtuning.com/2005-to...mustanggt.html. Here's my worry though. This guy has and 18x9 "Deep Dish" but the lip would be bigger than the backhttp://www.mustangtuning.com/2006gt-...-bullitts.html. The rim I would like with the proper deep/lip looks like there guys' except in chrome http://www.mustangtuning.com/2005-an...a-dreamin.htmlhttp://www.mustangtuning.com/2005-si...ustang-v6.html
Understand my dilemna? All of them are listed as "deep dish" yet some are deeper than others. I wish the companies selling these things would have actual rim photos. I also noticed the spokes of the 94-04 are more straight and the 05 up are bent back, why is that. Anyone from MT, can you give me a definitive answer I'd like to order these asap. Thanks

i don't really think getting an 8.5 on the back and a 9 on the front is really a good idea, if you are gonna put a 9 inch wheel up front you need a 10 inch wheel out back or it will look funny. my .02
