IMO, it doesn't make sense to run non-staggered tires on staggered wheels. I think you would be better off sticking with 225/45 front and 255/40 rear for both fitment and performance reasons based on your wheel width/offset.

yes its true, but in order to run 245 in the front your going to run negative camber, so why not go a little bit more stagger, not crazy stagger but just a tad. I also like to order 4x 245 40 17 sumitomos at once haha just IMO i guess.

when i had the same +28 setup on 215 tires with -1.5 camber it never rubs and it still look sunk, so i was just tryna get opinions about upgrading to 245 in the front. I'll update soon, getting the tires on probli today or tomorrow, hopefully it can help some others trying to run this setup too.

when i make a hard left turn, passenger side rubs just a tiny tad with the 245 stock rears on the front
