17F/18R combo's do not look good on 4th gens. Stay 17 all around, or go 18's all around. Sidewall height is the main reason the 17/18 don't look good.

Of course this is only my opinion.

QFT, i'm not a fan of 17/18's on fbodys either

Get an 18 x 10.5 and run a 305/35-18 in the rear. Looks killer. Call911's car has that tire size on his and it's incredible.

i run a 315/30/18 BFG drag radial on my 18x10.5s and it looks great!
