    Dude, you've been on this site for such a long time. Why post this misinformation?? Look at the confusion you caused later in this thread.

    The staggered wheel sizes has nothing to do with '03 vs '04. It has nothing to do with '03A vs '03B.

    It has only to do with traction control. The only question that needs to be asked is "does your MM have taction control?"

    If YES, then staggered is required - all 4 the same size is not an option.

    If NO, then staggered is optional - you could go staggered if you want, or all the same if you want.

    It's that simple. Quit confusing folks.

    Thanks MBB,

    So if it is above 3% am I good?

    The difference must be between 3% and 6% (personally I believe the range to be tighter than that... 3%-5%)
