I thought with all wheel drive both rims had to be the same? you can off set the rear to give you the look but the width has to remain the same as the front. I ordered Vossen on my all wheel drive and thats what I was told.

ya see i dont want it to stick out that far.... so jran said i should run a 285 in the rear.... i actually didnt know what stretched tires were till a couple days ago. i believe the rear cv1's are 20x10.5....
as for the awd is this true i cant run staggered? i went and bought the bc coilovers instead of th eibach springs and i got the kinetix full camber caster kit with toe arm... just to make sure im rolling right. im so confused as to what tire size to get. can anyone confirm if i can go staggered with awd

Yeah - that pic has a stretched tire. You can put a normal tire setup on them - no requirement to stretch... Not something I'd do, but I gotta admit they look pretty sweet...

I think the Yokohama S-drives and Hankook Ventus V12's are two of the better tires for the money.

i feel like i started a cluster f@ck of a convo.......... that was very informative. but im thinking like damayor said and run 275 in the rear and 245 in the front. im just really concerned with how low i can go. i like the black coupe vossen did in the pic i think it has perfect wheel gap and the wheels dont look cocked!!! im just trying to get a everyday rolling right sedan that makes people turn there head

wait i thought it was about the tire height being close in diameter not the width? cause that wouldnt make sense to throw off the awd system with different widths... how could the system know the width has changed? i think 245/35 front and 275/30 rear will be perfect. i just got the bc coilover and kinetix delivery from ups and wow they are some quality pieces i must say.
