Shipping was fast, though I did need to fill out an import document and pay $280 to UPS to handle the importatation, but it was no big deal.


One of the best parts of the experience was working with Alex. He listened to what I was after, made some suggestions, and ultimately exceeded my expectations in customer service. We decided to go with 20” front and rear, 285/295 tires which are a tad larger than stock but meet the X-drive requirements.

I would recommend Edelweiss as an option to consider.

My 7 year old son said “Dad, those wheels are fi-nancial!!!” To which I learned ‘fi-nancial’ is apparently like awesome in his 7 year old group slang
Man, your setup is perfect. Couple of questions if you don’t mind?

What size tires are you running?

Front 285-?
Read 295-?

Are you lowered or using any spacers?

Who did you order the wheels from, is it someone on the forum or Edelweiss directly?

Appreciate it!

Thank you.

Fronts are 285/30/20, rears are 295/30/20.

Rear is stock height (X-drive), front was lowered with Eibach Pro springs ~ 1.5”

No spacers, ordered wheels/tires/TPM’s from Edelweiss direct.

That’s great. I have the Eibach springs for the front already.

Man, I’m so confused on what finish to go with. Have gone from Frozen Gold to Champagne to Frozen Silver to Cerium, they all look good!!!

Agree, they all look good. If you reach out to Edelweiss they can send more pics of the finishes on cars of like color, if you want.

Did you pull the trigger on the wheels? Would love to see some more pics of the Dark Chrome. I’m all over the place with the colors, could pick about 5 just now. Lol

Fyi: edelweiss cast flow form wheels are made in Thailand. I think for price of edelweiss flow form it’s more reasonable to buy fully forged wheels, what do you guys think ?

Despite not being fully flow forged according to traditional standards, I think their dedication, weight and design is worth the price.

I got them in a week and a half from ordering them. Way quicker than they said originally, which was 4-5 weeks.
Any pictures?

The shipping charges are high and I wanted a set but by the time the taxes, import fees and other added up, I went with BC forged. It was the same price almost but I got a two piece forged wheel and tires for about 6400. I was paying almost 1900 in fees and taxes and it didn't make sense to me. Not knocking them or anyone that bought them but that did not make sense for me.

Hey guys
The Edelweiss 20x10.5 ET14 (285/30R20) and 20x11 ET12 (295/30R20) setup seem to push the limits hard if I'm not mistaken...?
Are you boys not rubbing? Or not really driving that hard so not a real issue or very minor so don't care...? Or is that said fitment just perfect?
I love to smack it along good old Aussie country twisting roads and pretty sure I experienced rub ( very minor ) in the rear once on the stock setup. Surprised but no biggie. I've been looking at posts for weeks and looks like a better/safer? fit (other than stock ) would be something like 20x10 ET12/14 and 20x11 ET14/15 and still quite aggressive. Any thoughts?
Also would love to maybe run a square setup so that I can rotate wheels but not go narrower than stock rear. Was thinking if the Edelweiss fronts ( 20x10.5 ET14 running 285/30R20) could work all round then I could also stick with *star rated Michelin...
Open to other suggestions especially from those that love to peddle hard.
Thanks boys

I did the same thing. I almost went with Edelweiss, but the pricing did not make sense, especially for it not being a forged wheel. I ended up doing BC Forged and love them.

Which model did you go with? I did the HCA381. I went through Wheel Lab and got them for $4500.00 shipped.

Is this 20" front and back or 20/21
