The offsets are the same all the way around. Stock the tires aren't staggered. I tried to talk my sister into staggering but she wants to be able to rotate her tires ...(overrated IMO)

With tires? That's a good deal. I'd get them for my Dad's camry if I knew he wouldn't complain about having more expensive tires

I remember you saying you had them but i've never seen them

You can have that size even if the width of the rim is .5"-1.5" different.

Shucks..... I'll show you next time we meet. I'll bring my truck over. Since we're having a meet at Ji's house you know ......... right Ji?

Yeah...meet at Ji's!!!

Yeah...I know you can still run the same size tires even with staggered rims. I just don't see the point. Especially since it's a rwd car ...

So here is the scoop on the IS rims. I googled it and found that the stock rims are 17x7. Its only the sport design (03-05) that come staggered 17x7F and 17x7.5R.

Thinking if I really need it. I think I do just because of those other stubborn nuts and bolts... Will also need to buy some deep impact sockets as I am putting a lot of damage to the non impact sockets I have
