I've been thinking about putting some new wheels on the car and I want the same amount of side wall all the way around. I don't want to sacrifice any ride up front with going to 19's, and with this setup I don't think I'll have to lower the car for aesthetic reasons.
With a 225/40-18 up front and 255/35-19, it would have the same set up as a Chrysler Crossfire.
I am thinking about the 5Zigen ZR+520 in Hyper Gun Metallic 18x8.5 and 19x9, I'm a sucker for full face wheels. The 19's for the rear don't come out until June.
What do ya'll think? Or anyone with the same set up?

Once you have this done please post up pics.. I'd be curious as to how this looks. Only thing I can think that would be a problem is that with lower sidewall in the back the rears will be as prone to curbrash as the fronts if you park too close to the curb while backing up. Might be slightly more noisy and bumpier too since the rears will have less rubber but shouldn't be anything too dramatic.

Do it!
You'll have a larger gap up front though. I run 19/20, with 35/30 on the sidewalls, so basically the same rolling diameter as your proposed idea here. You'll be stuck with a much larger gap in the front than the rear though, so plan on lowering.
