You cant run staggered tires on an AWD system on any of these cars. Obviously you guys dont know that. Porsche, Audi, etc. Anything with a high end, variable AWD system.
No biggie. I can't believe this guy got so butt hurt over a post he made on a GM site. News flash, nobody on here knows anything about what you've got, take it as a grain of salt LOL.
FWIW, anyone buying a E9X 335i/X car in the high teens is buying a beat piece of garbage. This cars are still going mid 20s. Thats like saying I can buy a C5 Z06 for 12k. I absolutely can find one for dirt money, but it will be a beatbox.

Yes, rolling diameter must be identical or near identical for the front and back wheels/tires. You run the risk of damaging the transfer case/viscous couplings if the diameters of the front tire are different than the rears. However as the tire calculator indicates... a 225/35/19 has a diameter of 79.17" nearly the same rolling diameter as a 255/30/19 at 78.61". A difference of 1%. It becomes a hassle though because you can't rotate tires when running a staggered set. Regardin the OP, I think the a wider wheel all around would fit the proportion of the car better.
