21'' Staggered wheels on X-Drive GT?

Hi All,

I was wondering if I could run a staggered set up on my 2011 GT X Drive. The factory set up is squared in all four corners with 245 45 19.

I'm considering a new oem bmw staggered set up with:
275 30 21
245 35 21

Would I have any issues with the x drive system? I ran the calculations and the rolling diameter is nearly equal. Anyone run this set up on the GT xdrive?

That setup should be okay. Just make sure you get low offsets, since the GT is quite wide.

Here are my offsets (rears are perfect, fronts could use spacers):
Front: 20" x 8.5" ET20 (could use 10mm spacers)
Rear: 20" x 10" ET25 (perfect offsets with no rubbing)

As long as your diameters front & rear are equal or very close to, you should be just fine.

I'm going with the OEM BMW style 312. Apparently these came with differing offsets, so I will have to check which offsets are on the ones that I am buying. I will find out and post to see if it would be acceptable.

I have seen these wheels on a 7 series and they look fantastic!

Has anyone seen the V-Spoke 356 Liquid Black Wheels on the M6? These would look wicked on the GT.
