More rubber = more total available grip. Look at aceinhole's set-up, 285's front 315's rear. His car is very successful in autocross man. You also have to consider that with wide rears and not so wide fronts the front will tend to break grip first (understeer) at least when off the throttle. It is my belief that, unless you have a lot of power, you should not stagger your tires as the total available grip will be equal on both ends of the car.
