You should NOT do staggered fitment on a symetrical AWD car. You are seriously going to #### up your center diff over the longrun. That's a very expensive thing to do since it's integrated with the tranny.

Like the rims, but definetly listen to Mosc on this one. Not worth it.

The only thing staggered is the width of the wheel. Will that affect it? I know that it would be bad if you had 17's in the front and 18's in the back. I really don't think that the width will affect the diffs.

me either especially if they are the same size tires F/R.

i think there staggered to make the back fill out the spacing. As most of you know the stock in the rear look like there in further than the fronts. I think thats why it was done like that. But i do wanna bring the back suspension up a little bit. It looks really slammed in the back. I kinda want the wheel gap about the same front and rear. I have kyb gr2 suspension. Any suggestions???

Tire height changes mattering on the rim it's on. It's effectively changing the circumference front and rear, even if they're the same tire size.
