Yes I'd prefer zero, but suddenly driving staggered rims on a G37x doesn't sound quite as scary. Just use 215mm wide front tires.

Simple solution, use 215/45/19 (fronts) 245/40/19 (rears) for a overall height difference of less than one tenth of an inch. The difference in rolling circumference is less than half of one percent. Insignificant. And the rear tire is larger than the front tire, the way it should be.

Neal is this statement correct?

I have a 04 awd and I am running staggered. Run 225/40 f and 255/35 no problem what so ever. I even drove from Seattle to Cali, got a flat and ran a 235/50/17 spare and had no problems.

i got a 2007 G sedan X and i got the vossens cv1's 20x9 front 245/35/20 and 20x10.5 285/30/20 and i have no problems except for when coming off a pkwy ramp reall hard on the turn my rpm's are getting stuck as though my awd system is leveling the power to the wheels until my car goes flat again. this is driving me crazy but other than that i have no problems
