Also staggered wheels on AWD are a big NO NO, UNLESS you have the rolling diameter with 1%, if not I bet you fried that sucker.
bought my 08xi used with 55k km. have had 2 yellow warning check engines, 1 red warning, and AWD error. all after driving really hard (pushing the limit to about 140mls/h) shut off the car for few minutes and started up again. Seems to be working fine however, i do feel that the alignment is a bit off? should i re-align? especially since winter is coming..

also, when i bought my my car i got 265's on the rears and 225's on the front? is a staggered set-up really bad for an x-drive? keeping in mind that BMW x-drive is not full time all wheel drive... its no subaru

last question... looking to purchase winters for my xi coupe... i noticed that my rotors and calipers are much larger than other models... would 17' wheel style 159 fit on mine? i have sports package aswell..

thanx
