I saw that post of yours....In fact, your posts on square vs staggered, and tire selection helped make my current decisions.

I've always steered away from a staggered setup.

Ultimately these Four points shaped my final choices:

1) ESSEX BBK (Front axle) Allows for 18" tire selection, which still isn't optimum, but sufficient compared to 19's.

2) Un-sprung Weight-Rims, tires and BBK ( Really helps as you know)

3) Staggered is faster, especially at mid apex to track out with our cars.

4) Over time its cheaper as well :-) Consumables add up!

Hope we meet up on a track soon. Appreciate you sharing your experience on the boards. That's what makes them great for decision making..
