same wheel width front and rear (non-staggered)?

some of our brethren over at my350z.com are using same widths front and rear... for example 18X9.5 F and R, just with staggered tire sizes.

what are the cons of this set-up?

anyone with a G coupe running after-market non-staggered?

There aren't really any cons, it just isn't seen much because people on this board like big lips on their rear wheels, and thats not achievable using the same sized front and rear wheels. For no lip wheels, it'll work great because the front tires will be stretched a little more and allow for more response compared to the rear

There must be alot of interest in this as the 08 Coupe finally offers non staggered 18s with the same size tires. Finally a chance to rotate.

only thing is you dont need that wide of tires n the front... even exotics come from the factory with 8.5 inch wide wheels up front max, same with many other sports cars... doesnt matter as long as you dont go down too much
