Rim size

Would a 18 inch rim on front and a 22 inch rim on back look good?

the ONLY way to pull off a larger wheel in the back than the front and for it to still look good is to have a tire with the same size sidewall (or slightly bigger) on the rear vs. the front. If the sidewall of the tire is smaller on the back tire, it looks like sh!t.

No way, I think 21 in front and 22 in back would look good. 1" is as far as I would push it.

Wouldn't it also drive your traction control and ABS insane because of the speed difference that your tires would be turning?
