We've always had 92s on the front but as 4banger stated, use different roll outs achieve an inch or so of stagger.
The thinking that has us using larger tires is that you get more ground clearance to avoid bottoming the nose and/or frame rail.

Using the shorter sidewall tires gives you a more responsive frontend because of less sidewall flex. It will make the. Biggest difference on a high speed track or when you have higher loads on the front tires
