There are only staggered wheels on the sport package. They are 18x8 and 18x9 in front and back respectively.
With the sport suspension must you always use staggered wheels? Winter wheels are generally smaller and narrower. I was planning to go to 17x7.5 or so with winter tires, but same width front and back, per the Tire Rack recommendation. If using uniform tire width is okay, could I also get, say, 4 19x8.5 M166 wheels and then be able to rotate tires instead of using staggered 19x9.5s in the rear? If so I might use the stock 18s with winter/all seasons and get 19s for summer tires.
