Opinion on T1's

Im getting these wheels hopefully soon work T1's. I'm sure plp know what these look like so my question is. What do ya'll think about 19' front 20' rear. Does anyone have this setup in any wheels on sedan. Thanks

t1s are a timeless wheel. i dont think ive ever heard a negative opinion on them. to my knowledge, noone has done that setup. you might have some trouble getting work to split 2 sets up like that though

If you go with that setup just make sure the diameters of the tires F/R aren't off by more than 3% or you will have issues with the VDC. I think that combo will look good!

20" rear 19" front.

I don't think it will look that bad (as long as your tire OD's are close) and don't think you'd even see that much of aa noticeable difference visually (not sure what the above photo is, but the car looks raked, and really shouldn't look that way IF your tire diameters are close), someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Wow that coupe above looks bad. Dam that car alone is having me 2nd guessing myself. Lol. I'm gonna get on a tire calculator and check tire specs. I know the tire specs I wanted for 19's all around fr 245/35/19 rear 285/30/19. Dam that pic of that coupe got me thinking.

those sizes will work depending on the widths/offsets you choose.and obviously the speedo will be off. any idea what width and offset you want?

why would you want 19 up front and 20 in the rear? that looks ugly as hell.
