Thank you!
Your situation is unique because of the drag application. There is no down side to running a staggered setup, besides the natural tendency for the setup to understeer in comparison to a square setup. You could definitely install a 275 or 275 drag radial on the 9.5" wheels.

Shiv from Vishnu Performance will be doing the exact same thing on his car when our 9.5" wheels arrive (He's currently running an 18" ARC-8 setup for the street).
Awesome. Thanks for the reply. I'll definitely join the group buy once these wheels arrive!
