staggering on AWD is ok, as long as the overall diameter is consistent. running 245/35/20 on a 8.5 up front, and 275/30/20 on a 10.5 in the rear. not quite exact, but very close to the same diameter. your car looks good man, but seeing as you have the coils, might as well get some 20's so you can drop it a bit more. just installed mine - finally - and i have to raise it up some; ran into the same issues you did initially. lol. too bad as she looks good with the tires tucked. hopefully i can find a happy medium between looks and tolerable vibration and suspension stiffness...guess that's why we bought the coils, eh? i do agree though, without a drop, the 20's do look kind of small. 21's would be ideal, but as you said, tires are very expensive. also, there are currently no size 21" tire that will fit without major modification for the AWD due to keeping wheel diameter consistency. at least that is what i was told when shopping for my wheels/tires.

i wish i had gotten the new split 5's, but what i have looks good enough. the only problem i have with it tucked is all the vibration. i really like the look, so i'm hoping a 1/4 to 1/2" raise will take care of the majority of it. have the dampening pretty stiff as well given how low it is. good luck; keep us posted

has anybody ran the 255/30/22 tires in the FRONT without a spacer?
the 245 is too thin and on bad roads you mash up the wheels.
I ran the 255/30/22 in the rear, and it rode great, but it was tight in the front, even after shavin the balljoint down a hair still tight, didnt want to run spacer on it tho.
anybody else try a 255/30/22 in the front?

that looks pretty good ^^^
i think the wheels are alright
im not one of those that thinks they are waaay to big but a couple constructive criticism comments...
1. the spokes are too curved...i know they do that to create the deep dish look but not a fan
2. the white doesnt look like it matches. especially in the lower pics it looks like the wheels are a brighter white than gfm...could be bc thats a hard color to match idk
just my .02
