I need to buy tires for my 17x7.5 and 17x8 wheels, currently i am running stock tires 225/50/17 all around. What size do you recommend for those staggered wheels...? how efficient is 225/45/17 in the front and 245/40/17 in the rear sounds? Thanks.

if you want to be able to "rotate" the staggered setup, you can run 235/50 all around. it will make things more "efficient" so to speak. if not, then you can run that 225, 245 if you'd like. personally id run 235's all around since it's not an aggressive stagger.

thanks but my car is lowered around 1.7'' in front and 1.5" rear if i go with 235/50 wont that cause any rubbing? what about 235/45?

Depends on the offset of the wheels, but I seriously doubt you'll run into problems unless you have offsets below the 30s...even if you do, just roll the rear fenders

the offset is around 30's plus 5mm spacers in the back, the wheels sits out flush though. I dont like tires with tall sidewalls, i think 235/45 will be better.
