Staggered Setup for Xdrive Question

Hey guys,

I'm looking at getting staggered setup for my Xdrive but I'm wondering about the difference. From what I researched, if the rolling diameter is within a particular spec, its okay for the xdrive system; can someone please verify.

The rule is less than 1% difference between front and back tires. 0.4% is within that limit. But I don't understand how both sizes can have 777 rev/mile with a difference in circumference.

That calculator math is incorrect.
Doing hand I get;
63360 inches per mile so...
63360/84=754.28
63360/83.9=755.18
Which is .904 inch per mile difference, which is well in the 1%.
You should be fine but I wouldn't trust that site.
