New Wheels Questions

I wanna get some new wheels for my X3M Comp. I wanna stick with the 21.9 and 21x10 size

What's the best offset to get a flush look without having to use spacers? (front and rear?)

Who is making wheels for the X3M Comp?

If I find a good looking wheel, I'd be fine with using spacers If I had too.(12mm-15mm)

Looking for a gloss black finish as well.



Thanks for your help.

That G05 X5 wheels, they didn't list the offset.
If you can find out the offset, I can check if it will fit or not.

BBS has awesome LM wheels that fit (LM 409 and 410), but they are obviously very expensive.

PM me which style and finish that you wanted, and I'll give you a quote.

Thanks for your help.
Here's a little table I put together to help me out with my wheel selection. "Perfect" fitment is open to interpretation, but this should get you pretty close to perfectly flush with the wheel wells:

Perfect fitment (no spacers, second ET is with 12mm spacers)
Fronts:
21 x 9.0 ET13 ET25
21 x 9.5 ET19 ET31
Rears:
20 x 10 ET27 ET39
20 x 10.5 ET33 ET45
20 x 11 ET39 ET51

Shy of custom/semi-custom brands, you might want to consider using a spacer with a higher offset rim, particularly if cost is an issue. I hope this helps.

Also, watch the concavity. Apparently a lot of the "super deep" designs have issues with clearing the brakes. Deep designs are usually fine, except on the fronts.
