What tyres are you running?
Minipins on the front are totally overkill 99% of the time in my opinion. Stagger ribs on the front with a silver spring no.2 piston, 35weight oil works nicely with the shocks on the middly hole on the tower and outside on the wishbone. 30° caster blocks can bite you in the arse if running pins. Back end sounds ok but I usually run grey associated springs.
Front pins will hook on carpet no matter what you do with the setup. (yes, I really don't like pins
) Staggers have a little less grip and you have to run different setups but are so much smoother and quicker in the long run.
But then european setups and british setups are usually miles apart
To get the staggers on the front rims nicely cut about 1mm off the bead of the tyre then seat the cut bit in the outside groove on the rim. Then glue the outside and just leave the inside unglued and seated one row in from the inside of the rim.
