Is there such thing as "old school staggered wheels"

A number of model years of the Lexus IS and certain trim levels of the Infiniti G37 have staggered wheels, but probably not to the extent you're thinking. You'd miss it if you weren't looking at the tire sizes themselves

why would you ever want a staggered setup

it sucks ass for driving and makes you look like you belong in a trailer park to the extent you want

My 2017 Camaro SS came with a staggered set up, thought not very agressive. 245 in the front, 285 in the rear. 20 inch wheels on all fours though. I want to go wider in the rear though for more agressive looking rear.

That's not staggered. That's common as shit.

Staggered means the DIAMETER is larger, not the width.

I think Hyundai does this on the Genesis Coupe.

No. It's just common in styling now days for them to make the rear wheel arch appear larger, but the diameters are the same still. It's fucking annoying.

Meh, the most extreme modern example would probably be the plymouth prowler, which had 17s in the front and 20 inch wheels on the back. but honestly you are a dumbfuck for lashing out at people thinking you meant wider in the back than in the front, because that's what staggered means.

smaller wheels in the front than in the back is typically for rake purposes and thus it makes you a boomer, so fuck off boomer.

I have old centec racing wheels on the rear of my nova, not too wide though. It's too dark to take pics rn

I have to say op I felt the same way especially with my 19s and it's like 2 Inches of sidewall. I didn't like the amount of shock transfer from bumps and shit especially with the stiff suspension. But then I put on some 18s with double the profile and holy shit I can't stand the amount of roll and flex the tires have. I feel like I'm driving a lifted truck when I try to take a corner with a very mild amount of spirit or switching lanes quickly. There's a very noticeable lag from when I turn to when the car starts rolling from flexing the tires to when it actuality moves the direction I want, it's so fucking odd. Of course it glides over bumps and holes, but I just can't get over the god awful handling. I can't wait for it to be summer again so I can put my 19s back on

Same diameter, wider tire. 245s on the back and 225s on the front (for the rspec)

Vipers have xbox huge tires in the back, don't they?

>>16235050
SmartFortwo's rear wheels are 5mm fatter than the front ones

>>16235050
Lotus Elises used to have 15s at the front and 16s at the back

>>16235050
Amg gt s and above have 20s in the back, 19s in the front

The original Viper had 335/30R17... very wide but small in diameter compared to modern sports cars.

>>16235050
I think g37 and 370z have that. Maybe the other infiniti models as well like m37/56

Modern family sedans have larger diameter wheels than exotic sportsters from 20 years ago.

Helps prevent oversteer in RWD cars.

You have ricers and driftfags to blame for the plague of skinny tires. Things to stop them going sideways are unpopular.
