Q: What is the difference between staggered and square wheel setups?

Staggered Setup: Involves different wheel sizes on the front and rear axles, typically with a wider wheel in the rear. This is often used for performance or aesthetic purposes.

Square Setup: Uses the same wheel size on all four corners, which allows for tire rotations.

We got these (BBK) installed on our S Plaid was the best think we could have upgraded first. They feel so great when stopping on the big end on the tracks, So much light weight as well from the factory stock brakes. Thanks
