    staggered rims

    has anyone ever tried it? i only just heard of it a few days ago. it's when the rear wheels are wider than the front. they say it's popular with drifters and commonly seen on bmw m3's.

    a ton of VW guys do this, Honestly it is for looks and with the right ride height (stance) and can look great, but for handling on a fwd car it is useless.
