CUSTOM 20″
When considering a set of custom rims for your vehicle, it is important to understand the engineering behind making an aftermarket wheel fit your car. Typically, someone looking to upgrade their stock wheels is looking to go larger in both diameter and width, like 20″ staggered wheels. This ideology is not always the best when factoring in the proper wheel fitment for your application. At Curva Concepts, we strive to provide our customers with proper staggered fitment knowledge, so that when they are ready to run a set of custom aftermarket wheels, they are confident in their purchase with us.
Types of Staggered Wheels
In the last few decades, custom staggered wheels have made a huge push in popularity within the automotive community. More than ever, you see automotive manufacturers releasing cars with 20” rims as standard. The only issue with the standard 20 inch wheels is that they tend to be on the more conservative side with flat profiles and a sunken wheel look. Custom staggered wheels offer intricate designs, deep concave profiles and aggressive offsets to complement the look of your ride. Our wheels provide wide widths up to 10.5” to give your car that beefy look.
A typical staggered set would be look something like this:
Say you own the brand-new Lexus IS350 F-Sport and you want upgrade the skinny 8” front and 8.5” rear wheels to something a bit more sporty and aggressive. Based on the brake components and available clearance, you know that you can fit larger wheels…because you read this post. You now take a wider 9” wheel and place it up front and replace the rear with a 10” wide wheel. Congratulations, you have successfully applied a custom staggered fitment to your car!

Examples of Staggered Wheels
What makes a staggered wheel setup more desirable?
- Typically, higher performance vehicles require larger amounts of traction. A wider custom staggered wheel application allows for more grip by allowing more tire on the wheel. A 10.5” wheel can handle a tire as wide as 295mm.
- Not only does a wider wheel allow for grip, but you can also opt for a lightweight 20” wheel. Staggered wheels allow you to maintain a certain weight by playing with sizing. A lightweight 20” staggered wheel can be manufactured by flow forging.
- Let’s be real, that is the first thing people notice. Running a wider wheel in the rear gives the car a stance that can’t be matched. Don’t believe us? Take a look at our gallery.
