So if I have staggered rims I still get same tires all around? Wouldn't that be a little weird?? I am not looking to buy a new set of rims..

I think the rear rim is ok for the 245/40 R18 rubber.

Let me ask you this to clarify: Are you going to have winter and summer tires but not rims for each set? You will swap between summer and winter tires every fall and spring using the same rims?

Why in the hell would you do that? Rims don't cost that much. Get new rims for your winter tires.

Oh nono I have another set just for these. It just so happens that they are 18 inch staggered. I have another 19 for my non-snow days
