Who's got staggered on a 5th gen?

Ok. I know it's only for looks. But who is runnning a staggered set-up?

It seems that most of the wheels I am into are only in a staggered set-up.
How wide is to wide in the rear? Besides pulling extra weight are there any other issuses? I should be aware of?

Thanks, Mike

A few 5th gens have or had staggered wheel combos. Larrio has the best setup, and Chris'smax has a decent setup too.
But how is it that most of the wheels you like are only in a staggered setup? If they come in different sizes, you just have to buy 4 of the same. Not like you have to buy 2 of one size and 2 of another. Anyways, wider wheels in the back is going to make your car understeer even more. And they will also increase rolling resistance, and you can't rotate tires anymore.
Just choose a wheel you like, and order 4 of the same size. Go with a 8 or 8.5" wide, and keep the offset between 35-45mm.

I got staggered and I think it looks good. 19x8's up front and 19x8.5's out back. Don't be afraid to run a staggered setup it looks sick!

I got staggered too. Z wheels. It looks very nice IMO.
I have not noticed any negative effects, except I cannot rotate tires. No biggie for me.
Did not add that much of extra weight either....on;y few extra pounds.

I have been watching eBay for close-outs on AXIS Milanos, or Hiros.
And they are always listed in staggered. I have tried to contact the sellers to see if the would sell me 4 of the same and most won't budge.

Yeah that's because they are targeting the wheels to 350Z and G35 customers, and they order them staggerred from Axis.
