What's up with that. It's always been symmetrical front to back. Now they are suggesting staggered? huh? Must be an error, 225/40-17 would be a taller tire.

Premium gasoline is better for a performance engine and even MPG. It's not that much more expensive, like <$3 dollars per tank(13 gallons). Don't be penny smart, pound foolish about it.
