Default staggered FR500's or not?
ok i've been wanting some black FR500's for a while now and i cant decide if i want them staggered, i know i want black 18" but i already have am wheel spacers 1 1/4" on my current rims but i love the big tires in the back look. i have heard that they will make my car slower trying to turn 10" wide tires but i think it would just be more traction. so what would yall suggest

----saving for a fully built engine, then a TMA turbo, then shooting for the 12's

stagger them, the look is well worth it. I don't think there's enough there to notice it making it any slower.

do the staggered for sure. nothing better than having a set of some big meaty tires behind the ass end of your car. I was happy i went with 17x 10" out back with 315s.
