im debating on whether to get my centerbore on my old wheels sized to work with our cars from my lexus is300....but my setup was staggered since i was rwd. I never really heard of people going staggered on a awd but hey theres a first for everything. Just wanted to see if anyone is and also if you are, are you autocrossing because i plan on it?

 

I have not heard of anyone running a staggered setup to date.

This is due (so I've heard) that running staggered will cause the AWD system to go strange.

Which makes sense seeing as it is an electronically controlled system.

I would not do it.

 

you can run different offset

 

there really isn't any performance gain from running a staggered setup on these cars so why not just get some wide rims for all 4 corners?

your center diff will thank you for not screwing with it. a lot of audi/quattro boys run a stagger and honestly believe everything is peachy...but I don't see them putting a lot of miles on those setups.

keep in mind that staggering on awd cars with open center diffs is still a big problem. with an lsd center (mech or active, either way) it's even more of a problem. use this as a good excuse to get a set of 18x9.5's and run 285's. screw a spacer...just get wider rims

 

i'm not recommended the Staggered for d' X because they need to be all the same diameter.d'staggered will damage your AWD Systems.
Pls.read this article before you have done anything.

I'm also got 08 G35X running with staggered for one day and feeling something different and srange so i took it off immediatly.Don't even try.
Now 'm running with 08 G37 Wheel all 4 same size and diameter.Run great!!
I like it.Happy that i made the right choice.GL

 

thanks guys thats what i figured just wanted some more opinions.....this is my first awd....
