I will be needing new tires before too long and am wondering if it is possible to change from the staggered 17 and 18 inch wheels and go with all 17 or all 18 inch wheels, running the same size rubber all around.

I am thinking then the tires can be rotated.

No.....The car comes from the factory with tires in the rear that are approximately 1" larger in OD than the fronts, and the car's computer programming is set up to see that difference in wheel speed, to keep the traction control, active handling, and ABS in sync.

Not entirely true. He can go 18's all around. A lot of people do. Just need to ensure the rear tire diameter is 0.5" inch or larger than the front diameter.
I've got 275/35 (25.6") in the front and 295/35(26.1") with no issues.

Re-read his post.....

He wants the same size tires all around, so he can rotate his tires.

You can do it just fine...

Lots of people run 18x10.5 square on the C5.... Pisses off the electronics but who cares....

Ive seen plenty of autocrossers running 315 square on c5's. they seem to do just fine...

I'm one of 'em. Been running 18" 315's on all four corners for years now. Electronics are just fine. All the nannies work.

How does the 315 fit on the front? Do they stick out of the wheelwell?

I have the same thing going on I wanna run 18x10.5 squared with 295 or 315's but what about back spacing all I can find is wheels with 65 back space front run around 50 I know people have this set up but how does it not rub?
