Default Staggered wheels for lowered Scion tC (With factory body)

Yeah i'm looking guys for a staggered set of wheels those who are running 18s with 18x8 in the front which I have front and rear now..I am looking to do 18x8 in the front and 18x9 in the rear is this possible I believe it is..
and if any are currently running this setup without a widebody kit I would like to know exactly what wheels you have and pics if able..thank you...I have been looking at these

The option with 18x8 in the front and 18x9 in the rear it says it will fit...my only concern is I dont necessarily just want a wider rear tire I want the larger lip in the rear..so if any have any info that would help..thanks

try wheels with the "fake staggered look"

I have them on my car. Front and backs are 18x8 but the spokes curve in towards the lip to give it the staggered look. I have R-1 racing wheels on mine




...____ty picture and stock suspension but you get the idea..

yeah...I have the 18x8 tork revo wheels currently but theres nothing like a true staggered wheel to me its just personal liking i guess...I was too used to having staggered lowenhart 5 stars on my corvettte and the foose speedster 18x8 in fron and 18x9.5 in the rears...the scion is my first import and I saw the thread of this exact rim below and the staggered looks is so mean

in before the "staggered wheels dont belong on a FWD car" remarks.
18x8 front, 18x9 rear works fine. go 225/40 front and 235/40 rear
