what do you guys think about rolling w/ 9.5 all around?

Yvette · 01-04-2012, 01:28 PM

I have seen somewhere its best for xi models w/ square setup.
So I am maybe thinking giving little wider in the front so I could run 9.5 all around, any cons/pro?
xi experts please chime in.

17, 18, or 19? I say go for it.

If you do, for God's sake don't put 205's or some shit on them.

18" x 9.5 all around,

I've been running staggered on my XI for 2 years with no problems. Running Hankooks 235/275 front & back. The Continental Extreme Contacts have IDENTICAL roll diameters, are you are worried about the Xdrive system being damaged?

U can run square set up. I plan on running 17x8.5 this summer.

Spacers are more of an issue than properly sized wheels

I'm running a staggered setup on my E90 xdrive 235/265 Conti Extreme Contact for 7 months with no issues. Staggered setups are available as an option from BMW, so there couldn't be any issues or else they wouldn't offer it.

Planning to run 18x9 ET24 squared or 18x9.5 ET25 squared with 255/35/18 AD08s this summer. I have -3 camber in front though.. not sure if you could fit with stock camber.
