It looks cool.

 

But, what's the point? It's a FWD car. Normally we stagger wheels on RWD because we increase the width for acceleration traction. Or to correct track width for suspension dynamics.

 

Does it rub when the rear suspension is compressed?

The point is when you were in highschool you had sex with the best looking girl and not with the ugliest girl. But what is the point, isn't sex the same with any girl(no) . I prefere the sex with the best looking girl and she doesn't have to be smart she just had to turn me on. Staggered turned me on. And just like women we all have a prefrence. That's my point she looks good. No it doesn't rub.

That is exactly what I meant. Was it for looks or was there another reason I may have overlooked. I see by your answer, it's for looks. Thanks for the vivd clarification. LOL!

 

I was never lucky enough to get the best looking girl in school...so I did her sister.

So, what are the wheel sizes and tire dimentions? I am looking at getting some 19"x 8.5 for the front and 19" 9.5 for the rear both with +35 offset. Not sure what tire combo's to go with it. Need some help here.....

 

Thanks....

I have another question. I have some 20's off my S197, are the bolt patterns the same? I am selling the wheels, but if I can get into a Fusion for the right price, I may put the wheels and tires on that. They are staggered, 20x8.5 front, 20x10 rear. not sure about the offset. I think +45 rings a bell for the rear.

Hi StreamlineGT. First, I do not believe that a 10" wheel will work, too wide.

 

Second: As an FYI, in addition to whether the bolt pattern and offset are usable, you need to find out if the center bore is correct.

 

Good luck. :beerchug:

Hi Streamline. The 10" wheels will not work. It seems 8.5 is the limit. The following information is from the FYI's of the Fusion Club I belong to:
