Same front/rear wheels...
I've heard of people doing this before. Why would you want to? What's the advantage? Is this so you can run a particular wheel that's not offered in the sizes necessary to do a staggered setup? Seems kind of dangerous to me.

i can't imagine there would be. even if you had the same size tires on all four wheels, you still shouldn't be rotating them, considering they *should* still be directional tires.
Back on topic, I'm sure you CAN put same size rims and tires on all four corners, but it doesn't mean you SHOULD.
actually, a lot of Japanese tuners run the same sizes front and rear but with different offsets...J's, Amuse, Opera,etc C-West runs 9's front and 9.5 rear. if you do run same sizes, handling's gonna be different than running wider in the rear

My daily drivers are Axis Supermesh with 225/40R18 on all four corners. For the distance I travel and the lack of "spirited driving" on my daily commute the non-staggered aspect is really not an issue and the number of miles I can attain out of them by moving front to back when needed is a real money saver. If I'm going to drive hard at a track day or group run the stockers with S02's go back on, though. It only takes a few minutes to swap them. I've pushed my non-staggered setup through some corners without any snap-oversteer but it's not worth the risks when I've got the staggered wheels just sitting there.
