New wheels


I have a 2017 Maxima SR midnight edition. Looking to upgrade the wheels. I am thinking of a staggered look , just for the look of it. I am considering 19X9 for the front and 19X10 for the rear. Also with this width what should the offset be? The car has Eibach lowering springs . Looking for any feedback. I expect to be required to roll the fenders and get camber kit. Anyone have a similar set up ?

I think the staggered wheels and tires would look good, but might make the car's handling worse. I would expect more understeer. Your car look great right now.

Thank you, that's what I was afraid of I was just hoping to get a deeper concave look from the wheels I want to out on. Thank you food for thought

My current daily driver is FWD and has staggered tires, but they are wider in the front. This was specifically to reduce understeer by the design engineers. I am considering a Maxima to replace it, and I was happy the tires are all the same size so I can finally rotate tires.
