Staggered setup, Spacers?
I am ordering new wheels, I want to go with 22". I am curious about a staggered setup because of tire rotating issues. I drive alot of miles so don't want to spend a fortune on tires every year. Wondering if I can get the same look going non staggered. Maybe I can use spacers on the rear. Anyone else have experience with staggered or non staggered wheels. Thanks.

Or, pick a set of tires with a higher treadwear rating, like the Nitto 420S tires. They have a 400 treadwear rating and last longer than most ultra-high performance tires.
I see a lot of people get hung up on the old school rotating tires thing. This isn't really common nowadays, as most vehicles run staggered fitments and lower tread depths. About a decade ago, it made sense. Tires were shorter, harder, with deeper treads. You used to be able to get 30K miles out of a set. With today's performance tires, you are lucky to get 20,000 miles before the wear bars show. There really isn't any benefit to rotating, in most cases.
