Default Non Staggared 245 45 18

Is anyone out there running 245 4518 on all 4 wheels instead of running staggered, and if so how is the handling and is there any effect on your VDC ?
Thanks

I'm running 265/35/18 all around for autocrossing. I do drive them on the street to and from events and haven't had any problems with VDC yet. It handles great

I have 245/40/18's, and they run great. The car is more neutral, and there are no vdc issues. I have falken 452's btw.

Same here. I run non stagger year round (summer and winters) and there's no VDC issues. I ran the Kumho MX 245 all round and am currently using 255/40/18 Azenis all round. Over the winter it's 215/65/16 Blizzaks all round.

Dave, What width wheels are you using with the 265/35/18's?

Spike - I've got 4 track model front wheels (8" x 18"). They're a little squeezed but not too badly.

Hey Dave,

Could I do the same except on 2 18x8 and 2-18x8.5? Standard 03 track rims?

Thanks

Chris

Yes, you can. I've got track rims with Toyo RA-1 245/40/18 on all four corners. Here are a couple of pictures from a recent autocross:
