And I believe the tire size is easier to find just incase you experience an RFT failure. Also, staggered setup actually induces a touch of understeer. What would improve the looks is a slight drop (recommend retrofitting OEM sport spring for a 0.6-0.8 inch drop or H&R Sport springs for a 1.2-1.4 inch drop) and maybe rear spacers round back (12mm-15mm, make sure you have the proper extended wheel bolts to go with them).</blockquote>
