Running Square Tires on Staggered Rims
I have a 2005 X5 sport package which has staggered front and rear rims. I'm considering a dedicated set of snow tires on the stock rims, but I haven't had any luck finding them in the correct staggered fitment.
Stock fitment is 255/50/19 in front and 285/45/19 in back. Can I run 255/50/19 all around? Using the online comparison calculator it looks like the overall diameter, revs/mile, etc. are very close. Is 255 too much of a stretch of the rear rims? How would this effect the X drive system? Thanks in advance! |

My 03 Sport came with 255 50 19 all around & the 10" wide rims in front. It felt fine but I fixed it.
My point is you should be fine.

I drive my 132 9"&10" with 255s all around. 285/45s are harder to come by.
Wouldn't recommend square tires tho..... :-)
