It's funny. So many replies yet nobody's answered his question - whether it's legal to have staged offset/wider wheels on a FWD car. It's been hinted that it is, but no solid answer has been given yet. He didn't ask about 'wrong' offsets, and not about tiny 5c super positive rims either.

As for why, he may just be after the staged look - nothing wrong with that. I personally like the staged look myself, but I wouldn't do it to my FWD. But its not my car we're talking about. Pull your heads in, its the noob section ffs.
