OK C...since we are on the topic again... ...
I am about to pull the trigger with John/James from EuroRev on the Vorsteiner CS-01 wheels (pic courtesy of James from EuroRev)

I am considering this set-up my summer shoes and I am investigating the following tire options...

Nexen n3000 - 235/35/19 F and 265/30/19 R
General UHP - 245/30/19 F and 275/30/19 R
Falken 452s - 245/30/19 F and 275/30/19 R
Nitto NT555 - 235/35/19 F and 265/30/19 R
Toyo T1R - 235/35/19 F and 265/30/19 R

with these offsets...
- 19x8.5 ET35 up front
- 19x9.5 ET33 rear

Thoughts, ideas, last minute suggestions, other tire options you guys would consider?

Did not mean to hijack the thread, but figured this conversation would aid the original question.

To add to the OEM staggered that fit the XI, here are OEM style 128s from an X3:



The offsets are a bit high at +46 front, and +51 rear, so some people may want spacers to poke it out. It doesn't bother me, though.

They fit perfectly with no rubbing.
