More ground contact. But you know, because it looks cool.

Cons
Can't rotate rear tires to front?

pros – better traction off the line, better handling, looks better

cons - slightly worse gas milage, can only rotate tires left to right and since you have to dismount them, it's not worth messing with

Yea they made the ISx50 models all come standard with staggard wheels so if your looking to do it at a low cost pick up a set if Isx50 wheels they are 18"s but you could also do staggared 19" ISF wheels
