I have almost decided on the 19x9.5 SVE drift. I really like the look of the staggered set up, but I am unsure if I will hate having to deal issues that come with a staggered setup. So my though is to stagger the tires on the same sized rim. This will give me the option to go square and rotate if I decide to go that route, whithout having to change rims.


One of the main reason I want to stagger is to get a taller tire in the back since I do not plan to lower (maybe the 55D spring).


I would go for 285/40/19 (28") rear / 255/40/19 (27") front.


My thought it that going with a 28" tire on all 4 maybe look like too much tire.


Thoughts? Thanks!!

Anyone?

Don't stagger. the car handles fantastically with a square set up. and, it's easier to rotate your tires since you can't adjust camber in the rear to get equal wear.

Totally agree, unless you want the visual of staggered set up or are heading to the 1/4 mile. I have a staggered set up, love the look but hate I can't rotate the tires. I can sway sides, that's it.

I am asking based solely off of the visual aspect of the staggered set up. 28" out back with 27" up front. I am thinking this will better fill the fender gap in the back since I do not plan to lower. However I don't think a 28" tire on all 4 corners would look very good. Anyone have a 285/40/19 rear and 255/40/19 front setup?


Also, I am looking for a tire that will give me a nice tread life. I have a 60 mile round trip commute and if I go staggered I want to get at least 30K to 40k out of my tires. Any suggestions.
