Staggered tire-width wheel kits?

Are there any of the Fujimi/Aoshima wheel sets that have staggered tire-widths? i.e. the rear tire is wider than the front. And are there any in 18" or 19" sizes?

Thanks.

Yes, most of the old Fujimi ID kits come with 225,15in front 345(!),15in rear wheels.
I don't recall seeing any 17',18' or 19' wheel sets with wider rear wheels though.

Andrew Racing Dish These are staggered as well; I also modified 2 sets of ADVAN model 5s for use on a couple of projects Because the staggered look is desirable on certain projects. It was an idea I borrowed from either Veyron or Zoom-Zoom I forget which!!

The 2 sets I received from HLJ last year WERE staggered; also a little known fact: Andrew racing 5s from Aoshima come in male AND female attachment methods!! I wouldn't knowingly spread false information unless I had proof to go along with the statement! Aoshima products undergo variations in between issue dates for a reason unbeknownst to me so anything could be possible from them!
