Default Staggered Wheels

Hey Cl'ers,

I know this question may seem trivial to many of you, but I'm new to the whole car scene and need some advice regarding staggered wheels.

So what are the pros and cons of getting staggered vs non staggered rims? I'm looking to get 19 inch M310s on my IS250, and I'll also be dropping the car using coil overs. Any common issues I should consider when purchasing wheels? Thanks in advance!

p.s. and what does an "aggressive" wheel entail?

and also... any recommendations for a good-valued set of all season 19 inch tires?

Feel free to browse through the wheel/ tire threads. There's plenty of them already.

Once you decided the wheel style you want... make sure you check the vendor marketplace to see if they have one available that will suit your style and needs. They are priced competitively too
