I guess they want wider track in the front to reduce AWD's understeer... though
you lose the ability to rotate in order to preserve those very expensive race tires.

they also stagger a lot of their race wheels set ups like 17x9.5 fronts and 17x9 rears.

Actually.. after a little thought... you could run spacers up front to get the
same wide track... and keeping the same offset all around and still do
tire rotation. A bit too late, I guess..

Beautiful wheels nonetheless..
