Do you mean, STAGGERED? LOL

Use the search feature. There's been far too many threads about this already.
 
There's a whole list of staggered setups right here.

-GT
 
Most of the setups for the 8th gen are staggered. At least the ones I like :paranoid:
 
Staggered wheels *** And they should look as good as they do on the sedan as they do on coupes. Staggered "looks" are to mainly make the rear as flush as the front. If you go with a set up that is the same width and offset all around, the rear will look less flush as it has a bigger wheel well as compared to the front. You can either go with this set up and get spacers in the rear to give yourself the "staggered look". However, lots of staggered rims feature a bigger lip or more concavity in the rear when compared to the front. As for functionality, you are only hindering yourself if you drive a car that is not rwd. The idea is that you want the lighter tire on the part of the car that is dragging. Since we are fwd, our rear wheels are just dead weight. If we make those wheels heavier than the front (staggered), then your performance will go down a bit [not that it matters really if you're a 4cyl and even so for most v6 drivers (we're not all racers)]. If you want to go flush, get spacers instead. You will not be able to rotate your tires if you go staggered, unless you don't mind going reverse staggered for a few months out of the year. If you want the true staggered look, where you can tell the concavity/lip size difference in the rear as compared to the front, then go for it. I hope this helps. You should search more though.
