That pic is hillarious. BTW thanks to members Evitzee and Lobuxracer for their imput on the AWD. This is very true and even states in the owners manual I believe. You always want to keep same size rims and tire sizees for awd. Also, you always want to keep the same tires and yes, I have heard that it is important to replace in sets of 4.

I remember seeing a few members who are running a staggered set up on their AWD IS250's. I think CATHAFER had staggered SEVAS on her AWD. Have you guys run into any problems?

I would still be cautious... i don't know the factory tire sizes of an AWD, so i can't say what you should and shouldn't do.

like what everyone else said you need to make certain you keep factory wheel circumference in the front and back tires... this is the priority. The offset has not affect, the circumference is key.

the only other option for tires, would be to up the circumference for both the front and back tires by the same percentage value (witihn 3% of factory size).
