Oh I see. Does it just improve appearance? I can barely tell. Or does it help with performance/handling as well?

If yours is the Black one.....the black rims look great. The silver/billett look, looks good with the white. However if one set is more or better staggered than the other - I would go with the staggered look. I like how the offsets make the wheels flush....IMHO.

yea the staggered looks a lot nicer and i feel more comfortable driving, esp in the rain like the thunderstorm we had in north texas last night. i mostly drive during the day and they really look nice with the sun out and i get a lot of compliments on the black rims. oh well, ill just wait bc i really wanted chrome anyways
