Usually, a stagger would mean a wider tire section or larger rim size for the back. One advantage would be reduced oversteer. Cons would be that you can't rotate tires easily and the cost of wider or bigger tires for the rear.
In your example, it would more likely to be 185-70-14 front and something like 205-60-14 rear.
I guess reduced oversteer can be also mean increased understeer too so it could also be a disadvantage, depending on your car! Wider rear tires also give better grip so you have less wheel spin under straight-line acceleration.
