Staggered Wheel fitment

I am thinking about new wheels for the Max. I would like to know you guys feelings on staggered wheels. They look pretty awesome, but will they be a problem for our cars and what will the ride be like? I will be buying the Vossen VVS-082 or VVS-083 in silver.

They won't be a problem but staggered set-ups on FWD is frowned upon

But yea man the staggered set-up definitely does look nice, especially since our car has a wide back, but the problem with that is it becomes more of a hassle when rotating tires.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing about tire rotation. Just got an awesome quote from the company that Choice bought his Vossen's from. Complete package with sensors for 2500.00. Now just have to convince the wife to let me do it so soon. Max less than a week old and I still have tax to pay.

I personally wouldn't do it. No advantage at all. Lots of disadvantages. Some companies charge extra to break up sets of wheels and tires. Also, why would you want the smaller tire on the wheel that puts the power down? Doesn't make sense to me.

Not going to do it

I will use the same size all around for tire rotation.

You might be better off going with Wheel Spacers instead, at least you won't have to worry about problem or extra expenses for larger tires when it comes to rotating them.
Good luck though.
