Staggered setup

I am curious about the differences in driving feel as well as the look of running 17's in the front and 18's in the back. If anyone has some pictures of their car running this setup id love to see a picture of it and get you opinion on how this changes the ride. I'm also open to some opinions on whether this is a good idea or not. Thanks for the replies in advance!

LOL staggered is when you run wider tires in the rear then the front. Staggered tires will cause a lot of understeer. in your case as long as the outer diameter of the tires is the same front and back it will just look silly but drive fine.

I got staggered 18s for the street.

Kinda wish I just went with 17x8 square like I have for the track.

But yea it looks good I guess.

I ran 19 front 20 rear on my acura rl. Looked cool. Sorry no pics. Corvettes do this type of staggering all the time.

I have staggered wheels and square tires. 18x9 & 18x9 245/35 all 4.

Currently running a staggered setup now, i love the stance. 18 x 9 in the fronts and 18 x 10 in the rears.
Performance wise yes, understeer, but eh Im not tracking the bae.
