I'm looking to go staggered. Is an inch and a half taller diameter in the rear going to cause a problem?

inch and half taller than current or inch and half taller than the front?

Inch and half taller will affect gearing & speedo either way. Unless that difference is due to lower profile up front. for example 3/4" less tire up front and 3/4" more out back

cornering and fast turns will seems unstable at times, depending on speed. other than that, shouldn't cause any problems other than having a different effective gear ratio and such

I changed my mind. I was going to go with Forgestar 19x9 w/ 275/40 and 20x11 w/ 305/35. After seeing the Vortech Yellow Jacket, I decided to go with 20x9 w/ 275/40 and 20x11 w/ 315/35's. They are the same diameter also. Thanks for the replies.
