IIRC the M Sport X1s have staggered set-up.

Staggered doesn't matter. It's tire diameter. I have 18x9.5 with 245/45 front and 275/40 rear, almost identical rolling diameter. Bmw official says under 2% front to rear variance.

If you aren't tracking, though, 245 or 255 square is better, if you get non directional tires you can rotate properly

Staggered here. As long as your rolling circumference is 2% or less front to back you will be fine.

I'm running 235/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear and have zero issues as they are identical in circumference
