I'm sure its possible but the question is why would you want to do that? I am sure Bmw M put staggered wheels on the X5M for a reason besides looks. The only reason I could think of is if you are using it for a winter setup which makes sense.

Have you looked into doing all-seasons on the staggered setup? On the E70 X5 with staggered 20" rims, people were able to run all-seasons. I believe the popular one was Continental DWS.

You need the same rolling diameter, the x drive is very sensitive. Buy a pair of winter tires, you will spend 110k spend and balk at 3k to get another set. All seasons why did you even bother buying the M car could have saved yourself 30k.

Don't wanna go through the Pain of changing wheels twice a year. I bought anM Car with an X. I might have to do the winter set in the end but I don't think exploring options is bad.
FYI the winter sets are also 19s All same. Not staggered not 20 or 21. |

The oem staggered wheels will easily last you 2 years unless you track your car.

The non-staggered setup will diminish handling, traction, and aesthetic. They're put there for a reason 19" All seasons are fine on a 30d, but they're an annual compromise - they suck in all seasons, but less than the wrong tire. You may as well not have bothered with the X5M to start with. It's not a big deal to add a winter set, and your dealership will likely store it for free. I go in in November, have a coffee and a muffin, and wait while they switch out my rims from storage, mount them all, and check the air. Same in reverse in ~March. It's $40, twice a year. The rims will usually sell for ~70% of their original cost after a few years too. |

Id love to know the compatibility of wheels from the E chassis to the F chassis. Is the center bore of 72.5 rear and 74 front still the same?

that said, your rear end will look really lame with skinny tires under flared wheel arches during the summer. should have bought a cayenne - square set up std save for a bit of extra spacer on some models |

Use this tool to calculate rolling diameter (especially comparing front to rear):
