BMW xdrive is designed with staggered setups in mind which is why there are factory options. You need to keep the tire difference within tolerances and your good to go.

xdrive is not designed specifically for staggered set up or else a square set up will be problematic. u just have to be 4 sizes wider and 1 profile size smaller to keep the same overall circumference in a staggered setup, eg: 275/40 and 315/35. this will keep the f/r rolling distance the same and the center diff happy.
