Stagger on any AWD car is bad news, just dont do. Its been said so many times. That said as long as the OD is the same front and back there will be no issues.
When atessa does come in though and your tires are not the same rolling diameter you will be putting a huge strain on your drivetrain.
I'm with Kras, you're an idiot if you stagger a gtr simple because there is zero need to and secondly because you are bound to put more wear on your system.
If the tire dia. is the same you will have no issues. I will be running 245/45's up front and 275/40's in the back at a height of 25.7".
If the fronts are shorter than the back (ie: 25" front and 25.7" rear) then the ATESSA will just come in a little later than normal.
You won't have the transfer case issues that everyone is afraid of.
I'm getting some 18x9.5 +20 wheels and I'm trying to decide which tires to fit. I think I'm almost settled on 265/35 all around but I'm considering a stagger with 275/35 in the back and 245/40 in the front. I know different diameters is bad for the transfer case and attessa freaks out, but is there a safe limit? This combination is only about 3.5 mm different is I thought it might be ok.. Any comments on the 265/35 (rubbing in the front?) or the stagger?

its even wear on the tires, it may be the angle, the front tire is turned a bit but the camber is killer for sure, on the outsides theres a lil bit of tread left on the insides theres good ole steel showing, i have rt615's to put on though just havnt had the chance im in the middle of a move!
