I don’t think Vorstiener is making 11x20 for our cars,
I’m pretty sure those V-FF 102 is 10.5 x 20 ET 40 - 295/30/20 on that F10 above

OEM tire sizes would be 245/35-20 front and 275/30-20 rear.

If your car is RWD there are a few other options that would fit fine, like 255 front with 275 rear (both 35-profile). Will be slightly taller than OEM size but fits without rubbing.

Higher profile tires.

I.e 255/35 front and 275/35 rear, but dont use these tire sizes if your car is xDrive.

F10/F11 with square style 434 wheels, i.e. 245/35-20 all around?

In that case 255/35-20 will fit just fine!

Now I am with 245-35-20 front and 275-30-20 rear.
Will I have a problem with xDrive with 255-35-20 all around?
Sorry about the question, but i am new.

No, issue.

The tire size is important with xDrive (not the wheel width).

You can use square 255/35-20 on your staggered wheels. But you will probably like to add spacers on the rear wheels since the tires will be more stretched and the rear offset is also less aggressive.

12-15mm might be good spacers for the rear wheels.

Then you might consider 245/40-20 front and 275/35-20 rear.

Almost perfect matched diameters (better than OEM sizes) and 1/2" taller sidewalls.

Will increase the comfort alot!

This will be perfect. But are you sure this is possible without any problems?
