so i've seen a few guys run coupe rears on the front..

why? the biggest difference is the width of the wheel is that why? because the offset is marginal at best. And they pretty much look the same..

I did it for ease of tire rorations. Staying with a square setup in rim width and tire size is easier in the long run for me.

Toxic. If you are dropped and plan on going with vert wheels I don't recommend wheel spacers. They have a different offset than the coupe wheels.
Last year I purchased what I thought were four rear coupe wheels. When I had them installed on the car with my 15mm wheel spacers I noticed that one of the wheels stuck out more than the others. I noticed then that the place that sold me the wheels sold me a vert wheel. I brought the wheel back and had them swap it out with the correct one.


I am happy with my coupe wheels and 15 mm wheel spacers all around.
I went with a square setup that way I can do tire rotations.

If the stagger was more significant than a 1/2" then it would be worthwhile to go w/ different wheels, but I'd go w/ 4 of the same too, having the ability to do a true 4 wheel rotation is a bigger plus than a 1/2" rim width difference, which isn't noticeable and rather worthless IMO.

Everytime I come to this thread I get envious. Hopefully I'll come across someone selling theirs for a good price in the classifieds.
