My Ride: 2004 530i Sport package, Premium package, Xenon
2002 BMW X5 3.0 Modded to X5 4.6is (4.6is body kits, exhaust) Premium pkg., cold weather pkg. rear climate pkg., Xenon headlights, clear all around.
I am about to purchase Miro's Style 167. Staggered set up 8.5/9.5 or 8.5 all around for easy tires rotation and $250 cheaper now and cheaper future tires too. What do you think? I am running on stock 18"/8 all around and it feels ok, looks like I dont need staggered? Need advice.

REALLY LOOK for awhile at the difference that staggered makes and then choose- it's personal, but I love the more agressive look and the "haunch" of staggered. It sets the car apart once you notice it... Also liked JBSAPHIRE's spacer comment- benefits of both and you really don't need the extra 60mm of tire...
My 2 cents...

STAGGERED!! (Yelled like Ozzie yells when he's looking for Sharon!!)
Since you have the sport pkg, i can only assume you like the sporty aggressive nature of your car. A staggered setup would only enhance that look. A non staggered setup will detract from the sporty look and stance. Plain and simple. Im not about to discuss the technical aspects of it because it doesnt seem to be relevant here.
