My 330i xdrive came fitted with straight 225/40 19 RFTs. Planning on using stock rims for winter and buy a new set of summer wheels with non-RFT Michelin PS4S with 225/40 19 F and 255/35 19 R.

I know BMW OEM 19s staggered setup width is 8"F and 8.5"R and would have preferred to stick to BMW OEM fitment but there aren't too many rims available in those sizes but there's plenty of choice in 8.5"F and 9.5"R. Looking at VMR 801.

Question is does the 8.5"F and 9.5"R rim size work for x-drive? Have people had any issues with this set-up? Wondering if the stretch on the tires alters the rolling circumference and negatively affect the x-drive system?

Would it be better if I just get 8.5s F&R but still use the staggered tires?

Apologies if this has been asked before...

imo, this is the ideal tire size combination for 8.5"/9.5" staggered fitment for x-drive. thx @wdeerfield for the thread.
