225/45/17 winters on staggered C43 wheels?
I know some people will run the same size tires front and back on staggered wheels so they can rotate their tires, but do you guys think I'd run into any problems doing that with snow tires on a C43 with stock 17x7.5 and 17x8.5 wheels? I want dedicated snow tires but can't find any staggered sets, only 225/45/17. I have newish (under 10k mi) Yokohama tires for the summer so I don't really want to buy all-seasons. Any suggestions?

Snows
That's what I have - 4 Dunlop Winter Sport M3's @ 225/45/17's on staggered wheels. This is my 2nd winter and haven't had any problems at all.
