I know I do... progress 1.7 front 1.5 rear doesn't even it up enough. I'll be changing to S-tech fronts when I get new struts for sure.

I like the clean look. Not too overdone.

Also,if anything, bigger tires in the rear will better help with weight distribution/transfer while racing
Well without a very stiff RSB, our cars aren't exactly prone to oversteer, which 225f/245r would help with. That just reinforces the understeer lol

so which is it?

staggered fitment on a fwd may not be optimum for performance (polish turds much) but it (subjectively, of course) does not look worse than non staggered. you have a car built with ~15mm wider 1/4 panels than fenders so, whether it be offset/width staggered or spacers, something has to be done for proper fitment. so what about a car with 8.5 +35 front/8.5 +20 rear? it's going to have the appearance of a wider wheel in back 9/10, does that look stupid too?

sounds like it's in your head. i'd be more worried about why i'm trying to compensate for lack of performance than what somebody else's wheel sizes were for cosmetic purposes.
