Anyone else on this type of setup?
Small front diameter to spin wheels faster, and a larger rear diameter for better handling. If this is done, Megan Rear Pillar Racing Bar - Sway Bars - S Tech Springs will be added.

or really sick.... but 15s would b too small for de front.. (look crappy) weight distribution would be off, and its front wheel drive so the huge wheels in de back wont give you that much traction help....

uhhh.. better handling with bigger rear rims?
you may need to rethink that.
what you want to do for both performance and handling is go with a 17x8 wheel, but make sure it is light.. at least under 19.5lbs, since that is what stock is. also.. i say to go with a 17x8 so you can fit a 245 tire under there.. trust me, if that doesnt work, nothing will.

The only way this would work would be on the track - 15" wheels with drag radials/slicks. With the huge sidewall on 15's that you'll get compared to 17's, you'll lose a lot of steering control.
you could get away with a 17 up front and a 18 in back or an 18 up front and a 19 out back but a difference of over an inch wouldnt look good.
well i tmight look good, but not for a fwd car
