I use Proxes s4's (all seasons) on the rs rims. It's ok to leave them staggered sizes

When I need new tires I'm thinking of squaring it up. I don't like the uneven wear aspect of having staggered tires.

Lots of us have purchased some used factory 20x9's and squared it up. Its a great improvement in handling.

Great time to get new rims too! I am running ZL1 factory rims with 35x315's in the rear and 40x275 front in all season and love the set up.

It depends if you like to turn or like straight line stuff.
Straight Line = Staggered Twisties = Squared If you're budget conscious, get squared tires for rotation purposes - no need to go expensive, especially if you don't plan to drive hard.

Thanks guys my rims aren't stock they are 20x8.5 all around with stock tires. So I could get away with 9 squared tires. What would that do to the looks compared to staggard? From what it sounds like staggered is really only good for take offs In straight lines it seems I'd be better to go with square 9s for rotation ability and cornering

For me having a 12" wide tire in the rear just looks awesome!
