The rear seems a bit higher in the air, i think roush is the only one who sells only rear springs ? instead of buying the 4

Those look great. I'd drop it or would have gotten 20's, but they still look really good. Those 305's fit with no problem?

WOW,

I've got 295/45-18s on 18x10 +41 offset. I also run the Roush rear springs. Not really sure if they would be ok or not with those as they are wider and taller than mine.

Although the 18x9.5?????? rim might buy you enough clearance.

ride feeling is very very good, the tires are sooo soft. They fitted the rim with no problem and into the car also.

Nitto specs for this tire says that it needs a 9.5" wide rim atleast. so i'm just there ! lol

I went to 285s out back on my 96GT so I imagine that yours feel awesome.

Now, let's see how quickly you can wear away those tires!
