Staggered wheels for track???

OK, this might be crazy, so bear with me. Some of the autocross guys seem to be having luck running 285 on the front and 245's on the rear. So what about this?

Road Racing

Add a set of front flares (largest I can find) and run 315/30/17 front Victoracers and 275/40/17 rears. From the specs the tires are itentical revs/mile and/or diameter. Rears would be 17x9.0 rims and fronts would be 17x10.5. These just ahappen to be common Mustange sizes to wheels are plentiful, offsets are even ok.

Could this work? Robi what do you think? Could I get these under the front of the car?

Check the Cyber Evo. I think their wheels and tires are staggered as well.

Just buy the whole APR kit and you can run 300+ front and rear!
