Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion
Beefer, not certain why you would want to use a staggered wheel setup on a 996 regardless of the manufacturer.
Leading evidence: 'Use staggered wheel setup' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Use staggered wheel setup' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I came across a set of discontinued OZ Ruf Wheels. Its a staggered set up with the front being
18�8.5″ wheels carry part number 63001001 and have a 58mm offset. The rear wheels are 19�10″ wheels bear part number R96.362.12010 and have a 66mm offset. The 18'' will fit a 996TT according to the RUF site but the 19's for the RUF is 19x11 with a 55mm offset. Will I be able to make 19x10 with 66mm offset work? I dont race, this is strictly for road driving with occasional spirited driving.
et 66 will sit flush on C2 in 11�. 15mm spacer will flush out a 10�
et 55 will poke 1/2 � on C2
No opinion on staggering a 19 with an 18 except the 996 is rake sensitive.
You don't say what body you have -- narrow body or wide. 66mm offset is going to be 996 narrow body fitment, perhaps also an earlier aircooled car. (Factory 996 C2 18" wheels are 65mm offset.)
Beefer, not certain why you would want to use a staggered wheel setup on a 996 regardless of the manufacturer. The seller of the wheels probably just figured it out.
Imho, I would stick with 18s all the way around. 8s and 10s or 8.5s and 11. The 996 is an incredibly handling car if you stay within the spec ranges. But you can really screw it up when you go outside the range.
I give you a bad analogy. Using that configuration, the 996 Turbo is a very powerful car with the right size equipment up front but very long skinny legs in the rear with small shoes.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
