Going staggered means you can't rotate your tires and the TL is a FWD car and you would have the larger tires on the rear axle.

I just think it looks silly to have the rear very aggressive and on point, but then the fronts are super weak.
20x8.5 is super weak.
20x10 is pretty aggressive.
in addition to not being able to rotate tires; it just seems like a lot of money wasted for less than ideal specs

You aren't the only one who forgets about rotation when they get hot and bothered about getting new rims and tires 
Width of the rim will somewhat depend on the design of the rim inclusive of the offset. Find something you like and/or then look at some of the threads here on AZ and do some research both here and on the interwebs.
Tons of combinations and set ups to be had...................

I dont know about you......
the stock rims are 8 inches wide.
if you move to the 19x8.5, you're not upgrading that much.
if you move to a 9 inch wheel; it'll look better and more aggressive depending on offset.
i am running 18x9.5 +22 all around.
Are we whoring out our cars?

Oscar, if you want to run staggered, you might want to consider 18's and 19's.

Steven how does running different diameter rims make it staggered?
