Double Staggered??

I hope I'm posting this in the right place...

Just wondering if anyone is running or knows anyone who is running or has even thought about running a double staggered wheel setup. If you are or have seen or know of anyone doing this please post pics.

I saw someone run noticeably bigger tires on the back (F: 245 B:295) and have always wondered what bigger wheels in the rear would look like.

...just curious

The Sports package come with staggered wheels. They come 225/45/19 in the fronts and 245/40/19 in the rear.

But I am running 245/40/19 in the fronts and 275/35/19 in the rear.

...just to be clear...I don't mean staggered, I mean double staggered...
like a 19 inch wheel in front and a 20 inch wheel in the rear, or a 18 front and 19 rear...

Some other sports cars do it like corvette, just wondered if anyone on this forum had tried it as a custom setup.

Why would anyone do that? Serious question.


I know I wouldn't put 19's in the front and 20's in the rear. If were to put 20's I would put 20's all around.

This was a question for the people who may have considered or even tried it.
If you wouldn't do it then why respond? This obviously doesn't pertain to you.

Why do we do half the mods we do? Why do people mix areo kits (stillen front, IPL sides, AK rear diffuser)
Somebody may like the look of it or even have a technical reason why they like it that way. Guys that mod their cars are looking for some individuallity or creativity or better functionality. Thats why I'm asking to see if anyone has done it, and why. If you know anything about sports cars you would know some come that way stock.

Yeah I know some of them come in stock but those are super cars. I'm not saying I'm against it. It just I wouldn't do it because I don't think it will make our cars look better but that was my opinion. Like you said feel free to do whatever you want to you car that makes you happy but don't come out all **** if some of the forum members OPINION are not good or nice. Remember it's just an opinion.

...neither can I. But the Vette and the Z were the two cars that came to mind when I asked the question.

The 370Z came that way and it wasn't a super car. There was nothing **** about my response. If anything it was **** of you to give an opinion when no opinions were asked for, but I didn't call you **** for giving it when I could have. I was merely providing clarification that you asked for. I just want to know if anyone has tried it, how it turned out, if they liked it and why they did it.

Oh wow...I've seen this car plenty before, I didn't realize he was running this setup. It's barely noticeable. Not too bad.

Good memory BB. That is exactly what I was going to post. Lots of cars do this but that is the only G37 that I recall.
