Default Staggered Roush Wheels

I currently have Roush Chrome Cast 18x10 wheels all around but would love to have a staggered set. I believe Roush made a narrower 18" wheel at one time. Anybody know where to find some?

I don't understand what effect you are after.

just run narrow tires up front and there you are...staggered

What you state is exactly what I am after...narrower tires up front. There is no real need for 285's up front on a street car. It just adds too much strain on the steering and front end for no gain. I also personally think staggered set-ups look better.

But you can't just put narrower tires on 10" wheels. mismatched wheel and tire sizes look horrible. the 10" wheels are made for 275 to 305 size tires and I want something like a 255 up front so I needed some 8.5" to 9" wheels to do it right...and now I have some.

ah...I wasn't aware the minimum width of the 255 was so narrow.

I would have kept the wides myself...but I can see your point
