pirelli tires question

okay i've got two questions. i'm getting 20"s soon and i wanted to know what was better for handling/performance. should i have 245/35/20 all around or should i have 245/35/20 in the front and 255/35/20 in the rear? my second question is for 20"s wheels, can i have staggered tires with pirelli pzero ms tires? a shop had told me that i can't have my tires staggered with pirelli's. are they talking smack and dont know what they are saying?? thanks ahead for the replies and info. please!

they have no clue what they are talking about. why are you choosing pirelli? they are infamous for poor tread life

oh yeah, you can't go staggered unless you have different rim widths (20x8.5 & 20x9.5, etc.) what kind of rims are you putting on?

i want to get the zenetti stella rims. they have 20/8.5 and 20/10. i dont want to touch my fenders at all. i've seen it on a g35 before. i believe they were 8.5 and they had nitto nt555 tires on them. i read that the nittos suck!!! i read on tirerack reviews that pzero nero were pretty good. i was deciding between the pzero nero and the bridgestone s-03 potenza's. people said that the s03 are noisy. so i guess i figured pzero.

also for 20"s, is it recommended to get the tires staggered or no?

If you trust the reviews on tirerack.com, the Pirelli PZero Nero M&S are the best bang for the buck.

i'm still debating between the s-03 bridgestone and the pzero nero ms tires. i'm sure the tirerack reviews are nothing close to the truth.

1] out of the two, what do you all recommend?

2] is it recommended to get the tires staggered for 20"s or no? 245/35/20 all around?
