Yes staggered means the rear wheels are wider. Example up front you'd run 17x9 1/2 and rear 17 x 11. Sorry I vote C6 in black. Not a Ruff wheel fan.

Well its about what you like. I love the way it looks. Thats why I got the set up I did. I believe muscle cars should all a staggered wheel set. Again thats just my humble opinion.
