rephrasing the question:

ok mayb i should rephrase this question

i plan to buy a staggered set of 18' is350 wheels, i think offsets are F 225/40/R18 95% R 255/40/R18

would i need to do anything before i can use these wheels with no rubbing or w/e that goes wrong with putting staggered wheels on an awd? or can i bolt them on with no problems, since they are factory wheels i dont think they will affect the trasmission or antying too much or does that not matter?

help would be appreciated, i need new wheels i hate these 17i =[

theres a thread for awd staggered..

i have a 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 with.. F 235/35/19 R 275/30/19 it keeps the rolling diameter almost the same!.. as far as offsets.. i cant help you with that.. but there are many people on the form who can help for sureeee

I have awd and decided not to stagger. There aren't any benefits staggering the stock wheels. It doesn't look any different and you can't rotate tires.

im running 19x8.5 and 19x10 and so far so good this will be border line stagger to run without f'n with your differentials

Just make sure the overall tire diameter is the same.

i'm using 18 is350 rims on my AWD, tires 225/40 front and 255/35(!) rear, no problems and everything is perfect

a lot of people says there are no problems, just worrying about the long run, and its easier to buy staggered than non staggered

Koz

To be on the safe side you would want to use a 255/35/18 on the rear and the stock 225/40/18 on the front. The reason is the front tire's (225/40) overall diameter is approx 25.1" and the rear's (255/35) is approx 25". The reason you want to keep the overall diameter close is because of the all-wheel dive system needs to have all 4 wheels rotating at/close the same revs.

just a heads up, thats not offset. thats tire sizes. offset for a stock wheel will probably be in the +45 to +50 range. check sewells site at the wheels, it list the offsets.

That's the exact set-up that I have had for 6 months w/o any problems.

i just went to check with a dealer 2 weeks ago and everything was fine.
