Do you mind if it is a staggered setup, or do you want the same size all around?

well with a staggered setup your back wheels will be wider, so you can fit a wider tire which means more traction...

Better traction and they look better IMO.

Also do you have a tuner?

Here are a couple suggestions.

I say staggered. It depends on if you want to rotate or not.
