Great for daily driving or tack AND can be rotated, not to mention a perfect winter set-up size.
I don't think that even has a chance of running in the front with a 255 tire without rubbing, does it...?

I think if you built a 18"x8.5" wheel that could fit on all 4 corners w/245-255 tires PLUS a 9.5" wheel for those that desire a bunch more rubber in the rear, you'd be on to something...

Ideally, I'll be running a staggered setup with lots of tire out back.

FYI ~ I'm not sure what you guys use, but I get a TON of use out of this calculator: http://www.rims-n-tires.com/rt_specs.jsp?postId=906 - unless you have something better, it'll be very useful working on a project like this...
