Staggered Wheels - Necessary on the X5?
 

I am thinking of selling my 19" Style 132's and moving on to some 20's.

Do I need a staggered set-up? I doubt I need a staggered set-up for handing as I don't drive over 80 mph. The staggered look is awesome, but can I get the same look with using spacers?

So the 132's dimensions of the front wheels are 9" x 19" and 10" x 19" for the rear wheels.

The 20's would be : 10 x 20 275/40 R 20.
If I would staggered the 20's; the rears would be: 11 x 20 315/35 R 20

Sure could use all of your advise as I don't want to make a bad decision.

go with Staggered set up.
and the 19''x10 with spacer still look skinny to me compare to 10.5 with 315 rear.

Agree with above...do it!

Agree with mrbmwx5.

mine is staggered, exactly what you mentioned and i just love it!

Bimmer360 do your wheels look alot bigger than your old 19's or just abit?

Yes, they look bigger and better.

Hmm, I have 132's that are staggered - BUT !
 

I guess my writing isn't that great.
My current set-up is 19" 132's that are staggered. 19 x 9 and 19 x 10.
The 20's I want to purchase are 20 x 10 and 20 x 11.
So I do understand the what you all are saying about the looks. Staggered looks awesome. Is that all the benefits for keeping staggered in my situation? I don't need the handling, so other than the looks I am guessing it isn't necessary?

If I don't run staggered on the 20's, then my set-up would be 20 x 10's all around.

I do need some help.

Thanks!
