      Can you rotate your tires with the staggered set? If not how is the wear on them? I want to go staggered but the tires I have are 1 directional.

        no, cant rotate. i soposse you could swap left to right, but thats not really doing anything unless something is wrong with a suspenstion component and causing wear on one side of the car.

        and directional tires dont matter, you put the left front on the left rear, and the right front on the right back. the X pattern for rotating doesnt do anything more for it,and most tires are directional now anyway so you cant do and X pattern.

          Is that the price for a set?
          What color are you painting your car?
          How does anyone think these would look on a red car?

          Good god, this is going on my list of to-do's if it is. :banana:

            I was talking about directional tires in a staggered set. As in you can't swap left to right side.

              ah understood, i misunderstood your other post. IMO staggered isnt worth it, your going to pay more for two 18's and two 17 inch tires, and you cant rotate them.

                    nice rims. what tires are you going to put on them?

                    i'm thinking of getting different rims more now because available tire options suck.
                    i havent found any decent autox/street performance tires.
                    i used to put falken azenis sport tires on all my cars, but they've discontinued and dont even sell their replacement in a size that will fit my stock 16 inch rim.

                    so yeah.. what tires are you going with?

                      Its 18 & 19. I already have the 18" tires. But I want a bigger rear wider so I figured I'd go taller too. Tires are not to bad about $275 for both for the same Kumho Ecsta supra 712's. Supposedly as long as I keep the car aligned it shouldent wear uneven and I guess every 10-12k miles I could have the tires unmounted and remounted on the other side if it had some kind of uneven wear on an inside or outside edge.
