I have the same size all around to allow more tire rotation options and it cuts down on understeer at the track.

i'm not too short on money, that's not the issue, i just really like how those wheels look, but haven't been able to find that look in a staggered wheel, if anyone knows of some it would be greatly appreciated

You do realize that the stock 18" wheels on G's aren't staggered- they are 18x8 front and rear.

The tires, however, are staggered. If you get new rims, you can use those exact same tires and you'll be fine.

The staggered setup looks good but it might be a little heavier on the pockets...

Like"darnelled" posted, if you have same widths all around you have more tire rotation options and whatnot..

I prefer to have less option and have the staggered setup but to each its own, my 2cents.
