AP1 rear is 7.5" so shouldn't you be good up to 9.5" width in the rear.

Edit: I see people were recommending 9" all around which would be over 2", don't mind me.

All good, I decided to go Enkei PF01 17x9+60 all around.

The AP2 comes with a standard 7.5 on the front and 8.5 on the rear, as I'm sure you all know, so if I'm ever questioned about it I will mention that.

Non staggered is better for street and the occasional track, right?

Lots of non staggered set ups with mixed reviews... Good luck with your new set up & report back with a review on the non staggered feel...I'd like to know more info on that too.. that'll be one of my future set ups too

AP2 comes with 7 on the front...but if they ask, it came with 7.5

Non staggered is supposed to be better for the track...as far as the street, it will make it prone to oversteer more easily, which is good for the track, but could be more dangerous on the street. You can get a stiffer sway bar up front to help settle it down. Also, just go to autocross and the track so you learn to control the car better.

I still want the black PF01s 17x9+60 all around.

I'm rather worried about rubbing on the front.

I recently bought coilovers and plan to drop the car about 1.5 inch (finger gap between tire and guard)

My fenders are already rolled.

I don't know if I will be able to achieve the required camber up front with the standard camber kit, I can't afford an after market one for a while and I don't really want to have to.

I am more concerned about improving handling than I am about looks, they are just a bonus.

What should I do?
