I like the 177 style rims and was wondering if anyone has them installed in a non-staggered config for F+R. If yes, which ones did you use: 9x19 or 10x19?...I was thinking of the following setup : 177 style with 285/45/19 tires

Thx
PS.
1. Any 19" non-OEM replicas worth looking into?
2. If I put 285/50/19 instead of 285/45/19, according to this Tire Size Calculator, the spedometer reading would be by 4% slower...can the reading be corrected via programming?
FYI: Original factory staggered 19s ran a 9-inch rim at the front and a 10-inch rim rim at the rear. Tyre sizes were 255/50 front and 285/45 rear.
