I need your help on wheels!!!!!!!!!
I'm looking to buy staggered wheels for my E92 328XI, but I heard that I can mess up my drive shaft if I but staggered wheels, because they require different size tires in the front and rear. Is this true? Or will I be fine putting staggered wheels on a XI?

it will be fine, but ou need to get wheels with the same diameter.....
so 225/40-18 front and 255/35-18 rear or 235/35-19 front and 275/30-19 or 245/30-20 front and 295/25-20 those are ideal setups for XI staggered |

You're fine running staggered setup on your XI. Plenty of others have done it, and its also factory option. BMW wouldn't make it an option if it didn't work.
