Less of a staggered look more so an even look. What problems could you run into with spacers?

a set of quality spacers like H&R should be fine for street use. As long as you're not tracking on them, they should be fine.

Think spirited driving is fine as well?
:p

I don't think spacers should give you too many issues with tracking. I have a couple buddies that track with spacers. (S2k/240) they never complained. At least not to me anyway.

just look at my setup in person before you jump the gun a buy a set of wheel so you can see what a 17x9 squared set up looks like.

You're on springs?? I've seen 17x9 on coils already just curious if there was much of a difference.

Here's my setup. 17x9 Rotas all the way around on Eibach springs, 1" drop. Tires were turned by just a little but there is pretty much zero poke.

Hope this helps. Sorry for crappy iPhone pics.
