I love the way my 20x 4 set-up looks and I'd do it again. I don't drive my car too often but the sight of a large pothole would freak me out for sure. Only change I made is I re-mapped my M1 mode to Comfort+ suspension b/c it was too bouncy on Sport+. Aside from that, zero complaints...I'll take my chances with the potholes to have the aggressive stance/look.

That is really a good price especially for 20/21 setup and polished. I live in VA. and wa quoted about 6400 for champagne set. I think I'm going with polished set though and am sure that will be 7k. I want 20/21 but am afraid of low 25 profile. I do a lot of driving on country roads.

The 25 profile isnt much different than the 30 profile due to the wider tire. It is smaller but not by much if you use the tire size comparison calculator. I ordered mine when the euro was less than the dollar so i got a pretty good deal! I love the look of the 20/21 but you also can never go wrong with 20/20.

I did notice that when I did the tire calculator. Maybe if it doesn't go over 7500, I may consider the 20/21 setup. It does look the best and I look at pictures of your car constantly and it doesn't help....😅

Hopefully the euro will get a little weaker before I order this summer.

I have an incoming 24 SMB M4 Competition Xdrive -

My setup is

BC Forged - HCS21 Brushed Grey

20x10 ET12 - 285/30
20x11 ET14 - 295/30

Will be lowered on KW HAS.

Should I go more aggressive on offsets anywhere (reminder - Xdrive)?

On the way to me. Adjusted the rears to ET12 as well. Will post pics soon when the car comes in hopefully this week.

I was in the same boat when I first saw his car, and had to squeeze the trigger. Working with Erik was amazing and worth’s the price!I went 20/21…

Your car looks awesome and I really want thus combo. How is your driving style? I'm not crazy when driving and of course I don't drive to the cars limit or mine either but I do take country roads for a little fun. How is the car going across bridge joints and daily driving? Do you wish sometimes u had more tire? You know once you go over a bump and do the butt clench...🤣😳

I almost always drive in sport because you never know when ‘fun’ will happen. I don’t have bridges in my normal commute, but I like how it feels. I have a set of Eibachs in the garage to install because I only want to minimize the gap versus being too low.
I’m not concerned about the tire aspect ratio at all.
I don’t know where you are and your roads, so only you know your comfort level. I’m sure we all try dodging large potholes no matter the tires we are on. No one wants a bent rim…haha.

True that, I had 22's on a 7 series with 25 profile on rear and ironically after three years of no issues, in two days, I messed up a tire and bent a rim on the front with 30 profile... go figure. Thanks for the reply.

First post alert! Ahhh
Loving all the info

Does anyone know any forged wheels that look like this one?
I don't believe it is forged but I love this style of wheel.
Also thoughts on offset and tire sizing is greatly appreciated.

These look like a semi knockoff to the Vossen HF3, which is a hybrid forged.

[GEEE82]

Yes yes! I love that style

Any recommendations on offset and if you keep the 19 18 set up or even them out?

No, you would have to figure that out. Every time I do it, I quote it backwards, so, I'm not suggesting anything. I would get on Edelweiss website and check their offsets. Their wheels fit really well. I want to say 10 or 12 offset. +20 is stock for both front and rear.

ADV.1 is the originator of that stacked spoke design. The ADV5.0 can be ordered in flow form and forged monoblock.

There you have it.

I am really in love with HRE 301 3pc wheels and thinking to get them 20 all around but cannot find anywhere picture of them on g8 before pulling the trigger. Does anyone have any picture of them by any chance?
