Question about staggered tires!

I recently acquired stock 19's from the coupe that i will be putting on my sedan very soon. i know the oem tire sizes are 225/45 and 245/40.. but those are the tire sizes. my question is that are the wheels staggered as well? wouldnt i be able to just get both the same size tire and be able to rotate my tires? or are the rims themselves different sizes too?

They're staggered if I recall correctly. Fronts are 19x8.5 and the rears are 19x9.

Ohh interesting.. okay that would make more sense.. I thought I was all smarter then everyone else LOL. I guess ill just measure then later today.

Oh and one more thing, will the added weight of the 19's noticeably effect the performance?

Nope. You shouldn't be able to tell the difference at all.
