Also, your proposed stagger is quite a lot. Pretty much running stock up front and wide ones in the rear.

With a square setup, you'll get much more even wear since you'll be able to swap to corners, right/left, front/back as you like.
17x9+35 (or 18x9+35) all around is probably the best wheel option for our cars.
Thank you for the heads up.
I realized wheel rotation/tire wear will be a problem but I've never thought of understeer.
Will I have to roll the fenders with a 17 x 9.0 squared even when lowered a little over an inch? Thanks in advance!
