Please note the VDC expects this stagger and it will not operate properly with a non-staggered setup.
But what is really horrible is that you only have ONE CHOICE of tire if you keep this factory recommended setup. NO ONE ELSE other than Bridgestone makes the front tires...

And the treadwear rating on the Bridgestone Potenza's really blows.
