I can't wait to see this setup! In my Canadian city, we have a fair amount of potholes so I have been waiting for this to be confirmed before pulling the trigger on next summer's set myself! Can you please confirm the offsets you went with?

In my head I've been thinking about how this would affect the odometer (not just the speedometer) by the diameter difference and if I have it right, it would be under-representing kilometers travelled rather than over-representing. Do you agree?

I've never installed low profile tires, personal preference and it wouldn't last in Chicago. I went with the sizes and offsets shown below. It may not seem like much but it will help a ton!
Front=21 x 9.5” et20 275/40/21
Rear=21 x 11” et13 315/35/21

As for odometer, I'm never going exact speed lol. I follow flow of traffic. So the speedometer never bothered me on any of my cars.

BC Forged RZ05 it looks very similar to my F80 wheels lol. But this will showcase more concave and the Crystal Coffee color is unique for Donnington Grey. The other option was EH172. But stuck with my gut instinct lol. Hopefully it looks clean

F80 for reference:

I wonder if the offset in the rear is low enough for there to be a 'tube' to the centre of the face, if that makes sense. The most aggressive example on their website is...bananas

Trust me that’s why I decided to go the extra 5mm than what I was thinking front a rear. It sounds like a small amount, which it is, but the concavity is going to be insane. At least I’m hoping it is hahah. Appreciate the kind words man, I can’t wait to share. The anticipation is killing me, and now that the tires and TPMS landed it feels sooooo close lol.

Ok guys finally I can BUMP up this thread. I got great news today and the wheels have been produced and they are ready for shipping. I am so excited the car has new tires, TPMS and these BC Forged wheels ready to go on. And as an even bigger update I had a Dinan exhaust purchased. But after 2.5+ months of waiting and still delayed to early next year I gave up. So I changed it up and got a Eisenmann Race exhaust and it is amazing and EPIC! I should’ve just made this my build thread lol. Ohh well haha!

Thanks man I was really concerned they might be too light. But due to size and concavity they came out darker than expected. So this will pair well with Donnington Grey, I think lol.

Should have the wheels this week or next at the latest. Then ceramic coat should take me a day, and then off to the tire shop!

Well guys the wheels finally arrived and they are better than anticipated! I’m really happy with the tire upsize the look is amazing, and the ride comfort is on par with my 20” no exaggeration. I will do a proper photo shoot, but for those that we’re waiting with me here are some iPhone shots to give you an idea. I’m in !

*Bear with me I did the ceramic coat and install this whole weekend. Better shots in the coming week!*

That looks incredible! Are you willing to share the full wheel specs/offsets and tire specs? Really looking awesome!
