215/45/17, 205/45/17 staggered.
I put 17" rims on my 95 M edition a while back because it needed new tires and I got a deal on the rims and tires. The alignment was off and I knew it but since I had plans on returning it to stock height I was not too concerned. any way as things go I got coil overs that took the car 2" higher then stock and I like the look with the 215/45/17's I don't track the car any more. PO was a track junky and had it all setup for racing. well I had it aligned and set as close as possible to stock with the 2" lift and now the front 215's stopped rubbing on the passenger side but it is still very close like less then a 1/8" so I ordered 205's for the front and since the backs are still new with very little wear I figured on staggering them by keeping the 215's in rear and 205's up front. W as wondering if any one here had done this and how it worked out? I still have time to change my order to 215's if it is gonna be a big deal.
thanks
