New x5 F15 owner seeking wheel fitment guidance

New owner of 2016 X5 35i Xdrive, don't love the current wheels and would like to replace with another style. I found a nice wheel and tire combo on FB marketplace but am concerned I am unable to do a staggered set up (BMW 19" M Sport Style 442 Wheels Staggered Set). I am not looking to cause issues with x drive system. Any information would be extremely helpful. Thank you in advance. Link to wheels/tires listed below.

I'm at work so can't view your FB link.

I've just gone through this with my wife's recently purchased 2015 X5 - you might be able to use some of the info in the below thread.

If you look at the tire pressure chart in your owners manual...you can see all of the BMW recommended tire sizes for your BMW model.

You can also go to the online part database sites like realoem.com or bimmercat.com...enter your VIN, then go to the WHEEL diagrams to see all of the BMW wheels that were offered for you model. You can use any of those wheels in the various sizes...then use the tire sizes for whichever wheel you go with that is listed in the tire pressure chart.

Be aware that you can't use any of the G chassis X5 wheels because BMW changed the wheel bolt pattern and the hub size. You also can't use the e53 X5, e70 X5M or e71 X6 or X6M wheels because of the different wheel hub size.
  • The e53 has a smaller 72.56mm wheel hubs (front/rear)
  • the e70 X5M & e71 X6 & X6M has a different (smaller) size rear axle hub (72.56mm)
  • the G chassis X5 has a smaller 66.6mm wheel hub (front/rear) and teh wheel bolt pattern is 5x112mm

Here's a chart that has wheel info for various E/F/G chassis BMWs...I stopped updating when the G chassis models debuted because of the 66.6mm wheel hubs and 5x112mm wheel bolt pattern:

These are 3 series wheels, F15 set up is 255/50-19, these tires are too narrow and low profile for X5.Why can't you just buy F15 19" wheels? These are usually dirt cheap, I sold mine for $650 few years back.
