staggered wheels??
 
So im trying to find/buy some stock 19" style 132 wheels but having zereo luck, so i have seen in the aftermarket i can get replica 132's for pretty cheap but only in a 19x10 and NOT in 19x9 for the fronts.. So whats the deal can i use 19x10's of the front with the 255/50/19's or am i missing something other than look, is it a look thing or a mechanical function thing, i'm lost here..:dunno: .

Well, the 10x19s won't give the "staggered" look then...
and, with that size all around, it will look a little square.

I'm surprised you can't find oem 19s for sale; they come up
here with some regularity.

Try Search Tab and do some reading and have some patience...
132s, staggered are around. I have them and love the look.

in reality a non-staggered setup is actually BETTER for handling, it just doesn't look as cool

19's all around is not bad... I am using this set up with 255/50/r19 tires - Toyo Proxes ST...Of course the ultimate set up is the staggered look..:D

Try Finish Line Wheels ...i just ordered a new set from them but haven't had a chance to inspect them as I'm traveling.

Nice selection - looks like OEM and replicas. Did the pricing make sense? I didn't understand that in some the OEMs were more expensive and others the aftermarket cost more than OEM.

Cost depends on different variables but i assume what you're referring is the pricing of chrome and alloy. There's an added cost for chrome wheels (and that goes for returns as well).
