Having a staggered setup would look quite weird on the Camry (wider fronts than rears) and I question the usefulness of that on a front wheel drive car, honestly.

Putting wider rears than fronts is equally useless because no power goes to the rear wheels anyway...

I recommend sticking with even rubber and wheels all around. It's a pain to replace tires for staggered setups, too cuz you've got two sizes.

i would agree with you on putting the wider in the back of a front wheel car. but i am running wider in the front on my camry and i think it works pretty good. but the reason i brought this up was the place im looking at for wheels has a bunch of staggered wheels for cheap

i don't think it would work that pretty good putting wider wheels in front than rear. it will cause under/over steer on cornering. and most of all it will look WEIRD

It would look weird because the camry sags in the back so idk about that look. On a big car like the Gen6 it wouldn't work.

No RWD on a Camry=no useful need for a staggered setup.

Unless you want to be a poser.

Only useful reason to have wider fronts would be to have more grip off the line... And I believe it would reduce the understeer... As long as the rims don't have a lip it shouldn't look too bad. Plus I believe the widest you can go in the front and have it flush is 8.5. so might as well go 8.5 all around... It's all up to you
