i think having a staggered setup on a FWD is silly. purely aesthetics, IMO trying to make the TL be like something else, like a RWD performance oriented auto, not a FWD sedan that can get outrun by a new camry.....

Increasing unsprung weight can be dangerous on a vehicle, however, did you ask the fella if those WORK wheels weigh the same and/or where lighter than the stock wheels ???? NO. Did you ask him if he drastically increased or maintained the stock overall diameter with his choice of tires???? NO. Did you ask if he Upgraded his SUSPENSION and BRAKES???? NO... You did NOT... you JUST assumed the worse and started bashin' his decisions... PLUS sizing can be done and successfully achieved on vehicles without Increasing the unsprung weight and rotational mass....... thus having a stable vehicle as designed by the manufacturer with bigger diameter wheels and tires.....

I just mod my car to my personal taste. I fully understand the pros and cons of staggered wheels on a FF car. Performace isn't what I was going for when I chose these wheels. I'll post up some day pics once I wash it.

Wider tires in the FRONT decreases understeer. Actually his setup will increase understeer, as the rear is much less likely to break loose than the front.

Hey extremetls.
Dude, im 17. So what????
Last time i checked the nonsense that has been happening here IS rather immature. If you don't like someone's car, at least you can express yourself in a much more articulate manner......
Again, just my .
And btw, my age has nothing to do with this discussion.
