Staggered Wheels on M35x?

[JWadle]

Has anyone used a staggered 19" setup on an M35x. What wheel/tire sizes work with AWD?

The wheels should be the same on the X or you can cause problems with the transfer case/differential/transmission, so I have been told.

Please do not stagger wheels and tires on the AWD model of the M. The wheels and tires need to be as identical as practical. Else, you are likely to cause some increased wear and tear on the ATTESSA system, and in extreme difference cases, could damage it fairly quickly.

The rolling diameter differences of different tire models (even if the same basic tire size) are likely to have some nominal detrimental effect, albeit less than if the sizes are different to begin with.

So, if you really want to replace wheels, do all four and make sure they are all identical (wheel offset and tire models).

Also keep in mind that the contact location of the center of the tires on the ground should stay the same as the original as much as possible (if you get wider wheels for example) by using appropriate offset wheels. This makes the motion of the suspension stay closer to stock.
