Nice Car SoFlo im glad i didnt get those wheels because i dont want my car to be the same as anyone elses. (although i have a Sport) i have the eibach pro kit and euro spoiler with 5% tint. Im waiting for my iForged Senekas to come in before i take pictures. Its nice to see what my car would have sort of looked like with those wheels tho

I have narrowed down my list of wheels i plan to get soon. But trying to narrow it down some more. I'm wondering will 20x8.5 with a +38 offset fit well? I don't want it to stick out, nor be too "flush" and i don't want it to rub. Anyone running +35-40 with pics from the side, I've looked through the dropped and wheels doc. and can't really tell. Like Caveman's wheels look like they stick out with a +37, but g35hakop with +35 looks to sit pretty flush, and hiko's with 35 looks like it fits perfect...

What would be the counter effect on running say 8.5 in the front and 10 in the back on the X? And... Lets say I run 8.5 all around but with 245 tires front and 275 tires in the back, will that also have an impact?Originally Posted by GEE35X
The important thing is you should run the same size rim and tire front and back on the AWD. People don't want to run wider than 8.5 on the front so they usually go with 8.5" wide all around on the X.

Well from what I have read in the past, the front and rear tire diameters must be exactly the same or it could damage the Attesa AWD system over the long term.Originally Posted by Proseven

Thats interesting... I believe a 245/35/20 (f) and 275/30/20 (r) is very close to be identical in terms of diameter... The ATTESA should calculate and distribute the engine's power to the front wheels evenly when needed. Apart from cornering, I don't see where else this could have an impact under normal driving circumstances... I'm not an aggressive driver who will corner like crazy, It would be nice to know for sure if a staggered setup will hurt the mechanics on the X. Originally Posted by GEE35X

I know the AWD BMW with their different wheel options can come in staggered configurations, I don't see, if the diameter is as close as can be on front and rear wheels, how damaging it can be to the ATTESA system.
Too bad Terrycs database does not have any X's on it... :-S
Thanks for the reply... Appreciated...
