8.5 and 9.5 staggered wheels. Can I just get 8.5 all around if I don't want staggered

I'm looking at some new wheels and they come in staggered setups (8.5 and 9.5). If I do not want to go staggered can I just order all 4 in 8.5 with same offsets all around? This will be for a 2gen GS if it makes any difference. I don't think it would matter considering the stock wheels are all the same width with same offsets all around, correct?

Yes you can. Looks is subjective so if you like the way it looks in a non staggered setup then go for it. I personally like the staggered look especially if the lips in the rear are much larger than the front. Personal preference that's all.

besides the fact that itll be rather displeasing and you will most definitely have a sunken battleship itll still roll. Narrow wheel setups are not the best on 2GS's.

but of course its your car. Personally ide stick with the OE wheels... if you want aftermarket at least go wider
