gs awd 20" staggered or not?
I'm having a hard time deciding to either go staggered or not on 20" for a 2006 gs300 awd. I know its not recommended going staggered on an awd but I heard that as long all the wheels diameter are the same it shouldn't be a problem.
I want to hear what you guys think. Especially from the ones that have gone staggered on their awd. And for the ones that have gone staggered, which size tires did you use and any rubbing without lowering the car? Any input would be appericated. Thanks Kevin

i'm bias to staggered...i'm not sure of the wheel diameter is the main focus for awd wheels...the wider back tires of a stagger fitment would require more to turn just by the added surface of the wider tire so traction might not be equal on all 4 corners...i'm sure the car can compensate but what are the resulting ride/performance, i have no clue.
if you have friends with staggered wheels, ask them to let you ride on them for a day or so...wont hurt the wheels and i'm sure a day or so of riding staggered wont hurt your car even if an awd car shouldnt go staggered.
