im gonna be needing some new tires soon and i want to just go ahead and get wheels too so...is it a bad idea to run 17x8's or 9's up front and say 17x10's or 10.5's in the rear?? should i just run x9's all the way around...especially if its an everyday driver??

i think it'd look great, at any rate, and you would benefit from more traction at the rear wheels. can't rotate em, though, so you'll go through tires more quickly.

I think that all depends on how you drive and what brand of tire you get.

Only real draw back of running staggered or +1 wheels is not be able to rotate them. But if you have the cash more power to you it will help traction and it looks mean.

It's not really the fronts you'd have to worry about :rofl:
At any rate, I'd say go for it, if I had the money, I would.
