I agree it's hard. I'm sorta walking a path down the middle. OEM wheels yes, but these wheels sure didn't come on an X sedan.

Wanna trade places? I'm actually finding it difficult to find a set of OEM coupe wheels on Craigslist. $1,000 w/tires?? I'd jump right on that. lol

Whatever happens though, I'm sure it'll be great. Make sure to post some pics so we can all drool.

I will, but my wheels look like ****. I have had the wheels less than a year, and I have curbed all 4 so many times they look like ****. I don't know how people do not do this with the wheels. I live in the city and parallel park exclusively except for when I go to work so maybe that is some of it. I am going to go get them powercoated instead of painted this time, but the place I want to go has a long wating list if you want to drop your car off instead of just the wheels. Before that though I need full paint correction as my paint is ****ed tooo.

So quick question. I've been shopping around for coupe rims. I found a set of 4 rears (19x9). I have an X, so finding a square setup is very attractive.

I didn't see anyone in this thread running all rears.

Any issues? I'm not dropped yet, but Sprint Springs are on the roadmap.

The offset on the rears is not very aggressive. You'll be fine. Nice find on a square 19x9 setup, too.

Yep, jump on those, a great find for your AWD, and you can run a bit more tire if you want, a 255/40/19 all around for example.

I have 4 19x9 convertible wheels on my x, the vert has a +30 offset and will poke out if you are not lowered. And do not run 255/40, it's an incorrect size for awd, 245/40/19 is appropriate. The coupe runs a +43 offset.

The AWD is a bit more forgiving when running a square setup. Lt8che has run 265/40/18s which is a little higher in diameter difference from OEM than the 255/40s. Not sure what % +/- from OEM would cause issues w/ AWD but 1.5% appears to be OK since he's running Forced Induction.

I am running all rears, and everything is fine except for this vibration I cannot get rid of, its weird, but that has nothing to do with having all rears. I am having the dealership search for the vibration issue tomorrow, so hopefully they can figure it out. I will be getting swifts and spacers put on next Monday. I can't wait.

Awesome, thanks. Can you post a pic? I'm just curious to see what it'll look like before the drop.
