New to the community

Hey guys. My name is Kyle, I'm 22 and from NJ. I recently picked up a 2010 ivory pearl x coupe with 28,500 miles. So far I've made great use of the site for a few small DIY, primarily for tail light and headlight access, thanks for the great write ups btw.

As summer is quickly approaching I'm in the market for wheels. I haven't made a final decision if I want to go staggered or not. I was reading in a few other threads that 245/45/20 +20 and 275/45/20 +40 is a good set for staggered. However, I don't know what would be the best option to run for all 4 if I choose not go staggered. Obviously this question has been asked before so please excuse my repetitiveness. As of now I'm looking at Avant Garde M310 Matte Black 20s or Ground Force GF07 Gloss Black 19s. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Current Mods- 15% tint all around, trunk debadge (except mt fuji) , full interior led, reverse led, drl led, and license led

To do list- Wheels, Gloss black roof, gloss black grill and trunk mt fuji, takeda intake, hopefully GTHAUS full fatback

Avoid staggered fitment with an X model. You need to keep all the wheels within 3% rolling diameter or your AWD system will go wonky.

Oh, yes, welcome to the forum! I would avoid telling people your age on the Internet. There are some real creepers around here that might interpret that as being smug.

I wasn't sure if the staggered would cause a problem or not with AWD but thanks for the clarification

Hi Kyle, welcome & congrats on your new X. As far as tires go for 20s the absolute best combo (diameter wise) would be 245/35/20 & 285/30/20 this will be virtually identical to your 4 OEM diameters. As far as offsets, that depends on wheel width but a +30 F&R is reasonable, also depends if you plan on lowering the vehicle. If you lower the vehicle you should get a bit more aggressive w/ your offsets since the wheels will be a bit more into the fenders. Be sure to post over here about specific wheel info~
