Staggered set up question 350z

I am thinking about getting 350z wheels for my max and have a question about the different width wheels. With our cars being front wheel drive is this even something to do? How should you run the wheels and how would you rotate them. I think the 18" 350z wheels would look great. What do you think??

get them all in the same size so you can rotate them like the normal way. Also watch the offset.

They only sell by people replacing their factories and they are different sizes. No one breaks them up. I think people on here run these.

Never say never, i've seen it on ebay, someone selling all 4 the same. And never say no one. If they are made, they can be had. Only if you want to pay for it.

You'd be surprise to know...those staggered tires will affect your ride. I have on my '97 and I ended up changing tires to Falken 512's. Much better...the fitting is flushed all around on mine. I'm not sure what it would be like your '00.

Hi, I'd like to know, when you say they affect "your ride", you mean positively or negatively. If so, how?
