Deep Dish Bullitt Size
 
I have an 01 GT and just put some H&R Sport Springs on that lowered my car about 1.5" all around. I think I may have sold my subs and amp so I might have money to buy some deep dish bullitts. After looking at my car it looks like 17's in the rear look a little small. I thought about going with the 18x10 deep dish bullitts in the rear and keeping the stock 17's in the front. Does anyone have a pic of a set-up like this? What are your opinions on 18's in the rear and 17's in the front? Also do you think 18's would rub? I was thinking that maybe the deep dish 17x10.5" with some 315/35/17 tires may fill the wheel well more than now. I need some opinions so please put in your 2 cents!

I would go with the 18's all around. I have 17's on mine and I wish I would of went with 18's. But I finally got them looking good once I lowered it. 18's would fill out the wheel well much more nicely. I ended up having to take the isolators off of the springs to make the drop look better. :D

if you just want cosmetic apperance then get the 18's since they will give you the look you want. if you want to keep your cars performance up the keep with the 17" rim. i have 18"s and i can say that they slowed my car down buy more the a half second in the 1/4. oh yeah if you get 18"s you should also get bigger brakes, i feel that those are a must for mustangs with bigger rims. the 18"s still make the 13" rotors look small but its a hell of a lot better then the stockers. if you want go fast stay at 17" if you want the look factor the 18"s. i have slight rubbing up front when the wheel is fully turned in wither direction, becarefull on the u turns.

Yours are 18's all around right? If so do you think 17's in the front with 18's in the rear would look good?

I think it would look great but was told it trips the ABS light that way.
