At first i wanted to go with 18's all around but didn't know how the fitment would be without having excessive camber or pulling/overs. If my cash flow was a little better i wouldn't really care about all that.

I guess i'm leaning on the 17x9.5's because of the possibility of rotating for longer tire life. Altho i think it would look better with the staggered tire setup on same size rim, so i'm not really opposed to that idea yet either since they would be cheaper than if i had to buy tires for 18x10's.

I do like the 17/18 stagger also. I have pics saved somewhere that i came across throughout my searches of a red kouki tucking 17x9.5 235/40 front and 18x10 225/40 rears and a zenki that is the color of mine sitting flush on 17/18

17/18 might still be an option i guess. Any 18x10 on stock rear metal that i have see looks like they have a hella stretched tire and about 2.5* camber tho. I'm guessing that's the only way 18x10's would fit (which i would rather not have to do)

My other choice was a setup like Mad-ass had with his old rpf1 17's but i decided i like the xd-9's better

Still have some deciding to do i guess.
