550i xdrive staggered
Hey guys,
Well just trade-in my 08 E90 M3, for a 5501 Xdrive m sport in white. Now looking for a staggered wheel set-up. What the best offset to use on a F10 staggered? anybody got a set of 20 VMR VB3 installed on a F10 yet? Maybe looking for a wheel that is very concave. Thanks

from my understanding,
As long as you have the same diameter as the fronts, No probs.

Don't forget the North American model's computer is calibrated to a non staggered setup, therefore, there is a small chance (pending on how sensitive the computer is) message may pop up due to wheel rotational variance even though a staggered setup is totally fine.

Thanks bobblehead
Maybe with any car if the tire setup is out of range of the calibration for the DSC it will do a cel, or the DSC will fonction sooner, or later then with a correct sizing. I wanna figure this out before ordering some wheels. We gotta get a nice stance on the xdrive too

Staggered wheels can work on AWD vehicles as long as the rolling diameter is still within the recommend range.
We have done a handle full of staggered fitments on AWD vehicles and the owners have been extremely happy and there have been no complaints. -Charles@VMRWheels

Charles, thanks for the post. I've been looking at a staggered set for my 550i X, but have found conflicting info. It's good to hear you have good installs.
