Thanks! This may be a dumb question but what do you mean staggered?

it means that the rim and the lip in the rear is wider. for example 16x7 and 16x8.

It looks nicer, but rotating your tires will be a pain. If you don't mind un mounting and remounting your tires just to rotate them then go for it. If not, just get the widest 962 you can fit in the front and get four of those.

I love those wheels! they will look great on your box.

Hmmm That adds another wheel to the list of wheels i have to decide between. I want new wheels myself but just can't decide which ones i want.
