you really shouldnt need staggers or greens on the front of the sx3, we run 4wd front indoors on high grip, mini pins most of the time in yellow

I used to use staggers to take some steering out of the car when it got dry, but I run a 410 which has a silly amount of steering. I've done some playing of late and had good results by going over to pins, and adjusting the car setup to get rid of the steering instead of changing tyres. TBH I think it's a personal thing, I still have a set if staggers in my box just in case...

Hi Mark

Ballistic Greens are a lot softer compound rubber for when its wet. They also do a Pink compound for when its really wet!
