I actually did email you guys for some assistance on this for my 2015 Lexus GS350 AWD and the reply I received was that it should not be done...or more specifically "we do not recommend running a staggered setup on AWD vehicles as it may cause issues with your drive-train, etc.."....and that was it

..otherwise you gusy are FANTASTIC!! #1 source for fitment info. keep up the good work

I’ve been running a staggered setup on my AWD BMW for a little over 60,000 miles. No issues yet 😬

Good info. I have a wrx. Wasnt planning on running staggered but still cool video

I was wondering this too thanks for making this video 👍🏻

You guys are awesome keep doing amazing videos !!!!!

EXCELLENT . FROSTY . . . HELPFUL VIDEO

Ayyeee love all these videos my man

I have a 07 Audi A4 Quattro wagon. It’s awd. What should I run ? I love the stagger look !

Very good and informal video.

Great info again!!

When it comes to street cars and track cars if at all possible run a square setup. Same track and tire size front and back. Gives the best cornering and braking.

Great video, my current wheel/tire combo has negative variance, -0.23%, I assume that still within the spec , 1% variance applies either way to positive or negative range ? Thx

Another great video. Thanks for the info.

Alex from fitment industries is by far the all knowing Oracle for all things that zoom, boost, brap, stututu.

Thanks for the heads up!!!

The stock setting on my 996 Carrera 4 was +0.86%, but the previous owner changed them out for wheels from a 997 Carrera (2WD) with a stagger of +3.59% so I’d switched it to a custom setup that resulted in a -0.39% (I didn’t use the OEM spec because the new rims were made to run a slightly wider tire in front and I’m not trying to stretch the tires) Only real difference I felt was with the +3.59%, the PSM (traction control) liked to kick in right away where as now it’ll let me spin the tires a little. Not a huge difference. It’s very slight, but it’s there.

Staggered my wheels on my awd BMW and it worked well, I got all the tires matched up but the rear still doesn’t have the fitment I would like, could I run spacers on the back to fill in the fender gap or will that cause problems again?

Glad I watched this! Lexus is250 2006 Current I run, 224/45R17 94W front and 245/45R17 99W rear. Also, 17" x 7.5", +35 Offset for my wheels. From my understanding the only difference between the front and rear tire is slight change in speed rating. I went to costco to order some new tires cause recently I've been driving on a spare so I figured it's about time... I went in warehouse suggested a brand, told them my cars info, and drive train (AWD). They suggested 225/45ZR17/XL (idk what xl means but ok) W 94. Exactly what i expected thing is two weeks later i come in the put the two front on but say my lexus is STAGGERED so they have to order some tires for the rear and guess what... The rear cost more $, considering my drivetrain is AWD and the setup ive been running for about a year or more i feel like they are trying to play me. What do yall think?

You guys should also talk about staggered vs square on fwd/rwd too.

Great video! I’m currently looking into what to fit on 17x8.5 (front) and 17x9 (back) would a 245/35/17 & 285/30/17 be better that fitting the same size 255/35/17 in both front and rear?

Have a 19x11 wheel for the front and 19x12 for the rear... will run these on my Audi Quattro system... if I get the same exact size tire for all 4 will I fall on the 1% or would it just be safer to get them all square and replace the inner barrel

Can't wait to order some Cosmis R1's from you guys

Thanks for the info it was helpful

Hi. I also want to run a staggered set up on my BMW E60 all wheel drive. I wanted front wheels 18x8.5 and rear wheels 18x9.5 so is this withing limits of the 1%? Also which tires will be best. I want some low profile tires but not too low. I will also be running air suspension.

Great video 👊🏾👍🏾

Hello.. Ive got a Subaru sti and I recently bought a 18x9.5 +35offset wheels (set of 4) with 245/40R18 on all four wheels.. I came across with a fitment problem bcuz of the front brake calipers being a lil big which makes me put a 8mm wheel spacers for the front and 4mm in the back.. my question is, would that affect my all wheel drive and rear diff or any suspension parts?

So for example is250/350 if they come staggered from the factory can i just install normal tires set up none staggered ?

And what about the actual width of the tyres? As long as I stay within the 1% variance in diameter, can I completely disregard the difference in contact patch? Cheers

So my BMW M240ix comes with 1,2% staggered stock, does that mean that i can run 2,4% at max with no hassel?

Just got some wheels for my g37x already with tires the front are 20x8.5 245/30 tire and rear are 20x10 275/30 tire I heard it would be ok under 3% should I leave them like that as long as awd light doesn’t come on or buy some 245/35 for the front ?

So would a 19x10F - 19x11R be safe on an Audi S5?

Hi, i wanna take your offer to help hehe I have set of staggered rays g27 19 8.5 +38 front 19 9.5 +45 rear I dont wanna sell it so want to put on my 2019 forester instead forester tire size is 225 55 r18 +48 You think it can work?

If I understand this correctly, the AWD really only concerns the diameter of the wheel and tire. Width does not matter except when considering tire rotation. I'm considereing GTR rims for my G37x Sedan Manufacturer: Rays Wheels Construction: One piece forged aluminium Size: Front 20 x 9.5J +45 - Rear 20 x 10.5J +25 PCD: 114.3, 5 hole Weight: Front 10.3 Kg (-1.6kg) - Rear 10.8Kg (-1.4kg)

Will you guys make a video that goes super in depth into how to the perfect measurements for your wheels and how to size up if you want to

Looking to do wheels on my daily project, fwd to eventual awd MK4 Golf. Recommendations?

Fitment industries the GOAT 🐐

Hi guys I watched your video about staggered wheels and I like it but I just wanted to be sure before I buy something, I have a 2012 BMW 528i xdrive which came with 17 in wheels and I want to go for 18 or 19 staggered. So my question is if I can go with 9 inches in the front and 10 inches in the rear or if you have any recommendation and the tires sizes, thank you and congratulations for your KZfaq channel

I accidentally bought two tires that are 235/45 18 and the ones I have are 235/40 18 I have the new ones on the rear. Will this be okay until I can afford two new tires?

Front are are 245/45R20 and rears are 275/40R20’s. Diameter difference is -0.07%. Any advice on that????!?

Can you do a best family car under like 10k. That look great stances and also preform well

2017 RS7... what should I run?

I just bought staggered wheels but I haven't installed them...I have the front: 225/40 R18 and rear: 235/40 R18 for '06 325xi E90...how do I check what's the variance (of within 1%)? And also what's the recommended tire pressure for front and rear?

I’m having a problem, just thought I’d throw it out there for some help. I have a ‘13 Subaru Legacy. My problem is my car pulls BOTH ways. Normally it’s on a bump or a curve in the road. Let’s say I hit a small bump going 35mph with my front right wheel, my steering wheel will then pull with about 5-10lbs of force to the right, resulting in my (usually use one hand on the wheel) having to grab my steering wheel with both hands. Also when I turn it feels as though my car isn’t turning and instead sort of sliding before it starts turning. On top of that, in full lock turning at about 2-5mph my wheels would chirp/squeal (obviously I don’t have welded diffs). I got an alignment a couple months ago so I’m guessing it’s not my alignment, my tires are somewhat cupped so I’m not sure if that could be all of my problems. I also have aftermarket wheels. My only conclusions to what could possibly have caused this problem is my tires are bad, or because I got in an accident in December where I crashed into a frozen snow bank going 40 (not sure if that would’ve broken and front end parts) or because I popped a tire and put a mismatching tire on for a month, it was the same size but different tread. Would love to have someone figure this out as I cannot.

Do you have anything for an AWD G80

How about killing the AWD system? I have an AWD Chrysler 300, and I've bought a Tazer (which provides me with the option of forcing a RWD). You think this can be an end for the AWD issues?

Can I run a 18x8.5 infront and a 18x9.75 in the back of a Evo X if I keep the same size tires all around ?

What about how wide they can be??

Hello so i have a 2014 x5 i recently put 22s on my x5 and now I’m getting that slippage and sometime a jerking motion. I was told that it’s because of the wheels because it didn’t start happening until I got on the freeway. So the tires I’m running are 295/30/22 and 335/25/22. I was told to fix this issue was to get a transfer case and differential case service and get the transfer case recalibrated. Can you please give me some insight?

I have a 2012 g37x sedan, i already bought a pair of 285/35/20 for the rear, what should i buy for the front to keep it within the one percent Ratio?

how do i run a front stagger on my lancer to make it known that its not an evo and look cool

I have a question that im hoping y’all can answer, so I bought my wheels with stretched tires on them, I have an awd and im wondering if I can get regular size tires to put on the back? Wheels are 9.5 wide, tires on front are 225/35/18 and I’m wanting 265/35/18 on the back

Got anything about poke?

i have Lexus IS 250 2015 base model RWD . is there any real benefit use a staggered setup on it.

can you put rwd rims on a awd car ????

Hey I have a infiniti g25. And am trying to run staggered wheel i have 8.5 to 9.5 what you guys think

I have an awd g37 coupe and it says: Diameter difference: -0.14" (-0.52%) am I chillin?

What about an Audi A5 Quattro 3.0 TDI?

I've always been about maximizing tire width, without rubbing... a mean aesthetic look. Since I've mostly owned Honda's, FWD has been my niche. My Honda Accord V6 Coupe comes stock with 18x8.0 et55 on 235/45/18 on all four corners. I upgraded to Advan RZII on 19x9.0 et35 on 245/40/19 and 19x10.0 et35 on 275/35/19 tires. Along with suspension upgrades that includes Tein coilovers, 3-piece camber kit, and so forth... my car is far more planted and hugs the road incredibly. My toe is zeroed out and the camber is a lot more aggressive (at 2.5 degrees in the rear). Overall, from my personal experience, FWD cars are easier to do a staggered set up. Yes, I understand that a staggered set up makes little sense on a FWD but why not maximize tire width where you're on lighter rim/tire packages? I haven't seen a loss in MPG, mainly due to the Advan rims being so got damn light. Uneven tread wear isn't really noticeable after 20,000 miles of driving (again, my toe is zero degrees and I get an alignment every year... it's toe that degrades tires). So, Fitment Industries, what is your take on staggered fitments on FWD? Some may say it's rice, personally, if it improves performance, no, it's not.

Have you guys talked about your detail products?

I have a 2015 Lexus GS 350 all wheel drive. I want to purchase rims from somebody who has a Lexus RC350. I'm sure they will be the right bolt pattern but the only problem is, the rims are the same size all the way around but the two front tires he's selling with the rims are different sized than the rear tires. Here are the specs: 20 X 10 245/35ZR20 And 275/30ZR20. What I want to know is if this would cause any issues on my vehicle AT ALL? I want to know because I don't want to cause anything detrimental to the car. I in no way am willing to sacrifice performance of any kind for rims. I appreciate your assistance. Thanks

I run a staggered setup on my AWD E91 BMW Wagon, which consists of ESR SR01 wheels, 19x9.5 +22 in front with 235/35/19 tires and 19x10.5 +22 with 265/30/19 tires in rear. This is the first staggered set I've ever run on a car, period. And this is even considering that I had THREE previous BMWs before this one that were all RWD. Weird...I know. :) The BMW E9X chassis cars are well known for having issues if that 1% ride height variance is messed with. Luckily, I did enough research to make sure that I would be ok because I've been running this setup for over two months now with no issues. I've seen some other guys on the BMW forums that are running setups that shouldn't issues, but still do. I think that must come down to the differences in various tires and/or the manufacturing tolerances of those tires. I don't know. ???

Alex 🙌🏻 great content....

I want to run a wheel and tires set up for around 1000 dollars I have an 07 Infiniti g35 sedan what do you think would look good, that’s in my budget ?

I don’t get why you guys don’t have more subs. Fitment done professionally

Well turning off the traction control help

I like to buy wheels that i think are cool, think about the rest later hahaha. Modify body to fit, etc
