I currently run the stock staggered sizes when I autocross (with Kumho Victoracer tires), and I still have a tendency to plow (understeer) through some turns because the front tires are loosing grip before the back. I am planning on getting wider tires on all 4 corners for next year if possible, but am considering actually swapping the front and rear wheels/ tires at one of the earlier events to see if that might help as well.
