wheel set up

ive read about a few cars where the wheel sizes are different.the front wheels are smaller than the back.theres only a slight difference but you can see it and it looks good.it gives it a pretty nice stance.has anybody else seen this and what do you think.

FYI, you might want to go wider on the rear if you have a good LSD like the Quaife. It's a popular euro style.

On FWD cars with LSD there is more force put on the outside rear wheel, and the wider tires make fpr better grip.

You could also go with a tire/wheel combo with a smaller rolling radius than stock to get off the line quicker.
