Staggered rims on a J-body
Monday, December 26, 2011 1:25 PM
I've seen pictures of staggered rims on a Cavalier but does anyone kno what the size, width and offset would or should be if I was to put a set on my 04 Cav? I've also seen the staggered look wheels that Axis makes but those thing even though their nice, r outta my price range, other than that thought, let me kno if you think it's a good or bad idea , oh yeah and pictures would help if you guys have any.

honestly, you're better off running spacers. it will allow you to rotate tires.

I vote against staggerd. Sucks not being able to rotate tires.

yeah those were the problems that i was commin up with , not being able to rotate them, an definate no if they're directional tires, and would they fit, I have the wheel bearing spacers in the back but they still don't sit out like the front and I have 18X8's on now. I found some 18X7.5 and 18X8.5 but the lip in the front was bigger than the lip in the back but I would have been able to keep the tires to 225/40/18 if the lip in the back was slightly bigger and they'll fit up to 9" wide but the only size that made sense was 18X8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear and those tires woulda been 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear. my other pick is 18X8.5 all the way around with a 3.75 stainless steel lip, I'll probably go with those. Thanks for the info fellaz , I guess I'll have to get bigger spacers

Get something, around 20-30 I say 20s. A lot better then running spacers.
