Hello to all my 5 Series brethren!!

I am in the process of finally making my purchase decision for wheels. I have decided on 20" Miro 111. I have noticed that some of the members of this forum have been running the staggered set up which is the following:

20 x 8.5 F
20 x 9.5 R

Also, other members are running a square set up:

20 x 9.5 F
20 X 9.5 R

Are there any advantages or disadvantages to running a staggered over square or vice-verse? I know that a square set up enables you to rotate you tires and have a wider tire in front, but I can't think of any other advantages. If you guys can give me some insight into this, it would be quite appreciated. Thanks

i think those running a square setup, have all wheel drive.

staggered will look nicer.

So with

20 x 8.5 F
20 x 9.5 R

What would the offset be to have it nice and flush with the fender wall?

Thanks for the response guys.

The offset for the 20 x 8.5 & 20 x 9.5 is ET 18 for all wheels.
