You just got served, foo!

perfect for going around corners

Don't do it! Keep it the way it is supposed to be... I had same size all around and burned the tires off so I could replace with the correct stagger.

Kiss my hairy white irish a$$!

You can only do this if your car has no traction control. (03 300A) The models with traction control require the tires be staggered to work properly. I'm think Blackened300A has 255's all around. There's probably a pic floating around the site somewhere. My car has traction control, so I'm running stock 235 in the front and 255 nitto's in the rear with no problems.

That is not a true statement.

What? Is there some sort of a button you can push if you HAVE traction control ??

Yes. Next to the adjustable pedal switch.

That is not a true statement.

What did I get wrong? That 03 300A's don't have traction control or that I can't drive without staggered tires on my traction control?

[ImpalaSlayer]

Yes. Next to the adjustable pedal switch.

I ran 245's on all four corners for a while, tried to find a pic of the car set up that way but haven't come across it yet. I'll check on my other computer when I get home this weekend and will post up if I find it. IMO, the car didn't look too bad, the 245 fills out the front wheel well a little better, so I actually liked the look. Also this let me rotate tires which helped increase tire life, although tire wear still sucked with the BFGs.

The traction control comments will relate to you if you have an '04 or a later '03 with T/C. The T/C is configured to sense differences in rotational speeds for the staggered tire set-up. If you run the same size tires on all four corners, the T/C thinks there's a traction issue, and kicks in. NBD, just switch off the T/C whenever you drive, and life is good.

All models have traction control, even mine, and I could run taller tires in front if I wanted to.
