Is it OK to have staggered 20''s on 2001 x5

I have 2001 3.0 x5 is it ok to run 20'' staggered set up?
would that hurt my drivetrain?
any help will be great before purchasing
thanks

A lot of members here run staggered 20's thats fine Just you can't rotate and just get a good alignment and balance

Not only is it OK, It's encouraged.
I have a 3.0 with staggered 20" setup for over 8yrs no without any issues.

I dont think its ok at all. And since we both live in CT, I will be a nice guy an offer to buy those 20s from you! My top and final bid is $100 a wheel/tire.

Think of how you will be saving your X5 by selling them to me!!
