RPF1's

I want to run the RPF1's in a 17x9.5 with a 255x40. Now my dilemma is whether or not to run +18 all around or staggered +18 front +38 rear. I don't mind rolling my rear fenders i am just not a fan of flaring or running spacers in the front. What is the down side to running a staggered offset? besides not being able to rotate my tires

The only way to run a staggered offset is to have the more aggressive one out back with a very fat lip and a smaller one upfront. But not on an evo the way the body is setup is crap for staggered.

You won't have to do any thing in the front to run +18 in front. You said you don't mind rolling the rear, so you should just do +18 all around.
