That looks pretty awesome but how would it affect the handling?

Handling has suffered a lot actually the car seems a bit top heavy now and the front wheels spin more on hard takeoff so I still have a bit of work to do to get it right

Thank tppin we spent a long time choosing the right rims a lot of the rims we liked just didn’t suit the curves of the car and were more of a distraction then an enhancement. and I am starting to like the low front hi back look now I think I will only lower the back a bit

Hmmm ... Different... Kinda reminds me of the old hot rods... Low at the front and raised at the back ...

Just not really a big fan of it on the FTO ... Kinda looks like a sports car front and a 4X4 rear... But just my $0.02
