The term "staggered" means that the lip of the wheels that go on the front have a different width than those that are on the rear. (Narrower front lip and fatter rear lip.) This is the "deep dish" look, which doesn't apply to OEM wheels.

Example:
Car has 19's all the way around. But notice how the rear wheels have a wider lip than the front?
Another example:
I have a set of HPR5 wheels that I had custom widened. The wheels were all originally the same size, same offset. I had the fronts widened to 9.5", and the rears to 11." Even though the rears are wider, they're not staggered because the lips of all 4 wheels are still equal in width.
I feel like a n00b now, because what you're saying makes sense.
