I went staggered, i know theres a lot of discussion about whether or not you can go staggered, but after speaking with my sales guy who was very experienced and an owner of all wheel drive germany cars, I decided the aggressive look of staggered was the way to go, and so far so good. no error messages or noticeable change in driving feel.
Oh, and I had a staggered set on my old XI for years with no problems. Enjoy and congrats!

ya im def gonna post more pics but waitin for my other camera... these were off a my blackberry lol
the rims are Lexani lx-10 machined black/chrome with stainless steel lip. 20 x 8.5 front 20 x 10 rear. tire size 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 offset i believe is 40, i know it is high because of the xi model. no spacers needed.
and yes guys in the tristate area, if you see my car driving real slow in the right lane its cause im on pothole patrol lol but what else can you do around the nyc area?? I was tryin to get insurance on these but the place i got them did not offer it. any third party insurance companies ne one know of?

get another set of winter wheels with tires (or use your stock set) during pothole season. this season was one of the worst i've seen in years. my E60 hasn't traveled beyond a mile of my house this winter and my X is sticking with it's 18's and not getting it's 20's put back on, until every hole is filled.
