Does anyone have 18 inch wheels on the front and 19's on the rear? Could you share a picture and what size tires are on it, what's the wheel width?

I can't help you with the staggered setup, but I have 19x9.5 inch rims on my challenger with 275/35/19 tires all the way around. It clears well and I like how it looks. I'll see if I can find a picture.

18x8 front, 18x10 rear.
Since we are going off the reservation (non B Body), here is my little A body with 18x9 front w/ 255/40-18 (26" tall), 18x10 rear w/ 295/40-18 (27.2" tall). And there is plenty of room to run a 325/30-19 back there when the time comes.

PGM: That Blue Challenger is stunning. Great pictures too, I like the style of photography you did there. Is that a FORD 9" in that Green Plymouth? Kidding.

Kidding.
Yes, unfortunately it was. I purchased the car 18 months back sight unseen based on the sellers description, big big big mistake.
The 9 inch was only the beginning of the sins this car has endured from its previous owners.
I'm pleased to advise though, the 9 inch left the building a few weeks back, and a disc braked 8 3/4 is now living there again.
