Honestly I cannot remember exactly. I’ll look cuz I have some Forgiato’s on my Tesla right now. But the main reason they don’t rub is cuz they are deep dished with a step up so the lip doesn’t look as deep as they really are. The tires are stretched to fit both the fronts and rears.

It is true for the situation I was addressing.
In addition to colindo's question, what size tires are you using?
I can’t remember I will check since I have Forgiatos on my Tesla right now. Will get back to you shortly on the offset
I have all completely custom rims that I either had Custom Powder coated or they are custom made and no one else has the same ones. I have 3 sets BBS UP Carbon Fiber Faces with Candy Apple Red Barrels
Avant-garde SR10
Forgiato Maglia Custom Powder coated
The offset is going to be where you rim end up sitting in the wheel well. So if you have perfect offset than add adapters not spacers the offset will either move the rim forward or back in the wheel well. Causing it too rub. It’s really only an issue for front wheels as rears won’t be effected from it since they don’t have to turn
Technically the rears do not meet the load requirements so places like discount tire won’t install them etc. They don’t know *sugar* tho cuz they are fine I think it misses the load by 3 and I keep my psi at 50 just cause the Model s is a heavy car
*sugar* I thought I engraved the offset on my rims but I must not have on these ones. I have to figure it out since these rims were supposedly not possible to fit without rubbing even with a spacer. The widest I was told before and had seen was 9.5 on the fronts and 10.5 on the rears. But like I said the amount of lip the rims has or where the faces are sitting on 2 piece or 3 piece rims is what really matters. I think 10.5 would fit on the fronts if the faces were further back. It might I should say cuz mine have a little room. If you had 265 25 21 tires I think it would work. Than it would be the perfect fit and might even need 5mm spacer to be completely flush. Mine has no rubbing and still has space on the outside to be more flush. When I put an adapter on it rubbed cuz it changed the offset. For the rears 11’s are as wide as you would want to go unless you had fender flares as it is the perfect fit for being flush. However if you put 325 wide tires on it wouldn’t look as flush.
You also need to make sure if you ever use a larger spacer than 5mm you should get ones with an extended center bore. Even at 5mm I think you should get an extended center bore. It literally doesn’t stick out at all past the 5mm spacer and that can cause a lot of issues if it isn’t on it. Like ruining all the studs and not being able to remove the rim with lug nuts stuck that need to be drilled to get off

If you’re still thinking of getting those one piece rims I don’t think you should go that wide. It’s not going to fit without having to use spacers so the rears won’t look good cuz you will most likely need 15mm spacer. Then it’s going to stick out too far. Unless they make them super concave which I highly doubt
The Forgiatos I have are 10.5 and need adapters to fit since they are one piece. I think I have 20 or 25mm adapters and they almost stick out too far. I also had to shave the studs cuz they were hitting the rim. If I shaved them down enough to fit a15mm it would be perfect but than I would be screwed with using any other rim without an adapter since it wouldn’t be able to get 4 full rotations. This car is having fender flares added so I don’t mind that they stick out cuz I’m going to make them flush with the fender flares so will need too stick out more once I install the Revozport widebody kit. Some rims have are made where the studs won’t hit with any adapters cuz they have cut outs to allow them to be added. For example the turbines could fit with adapters and the arachnids cannot fit with adapters under 30mm without having to shave the studs cuz the way the back of the rim is compared to the turbines. Obviously using spacers you will never have this issue just the center bore issue of extending it. Plus I’ve been told you shouldn’t run more than a 15mm spacer for Performance Tesla’s by Lenny who most get their adapters and spacers from on here and who I would recommend using. Pretty sure 15mm was the widest he said too use and than you must use hub centric adapters for thicker than 15mm
They would look better with 285 30 21 tires. They have 295 30 21 now. Even 295 25 21 would look better I think. I actually think it looks better to run 25 on the rear with 30 on the fronts. Most shops won’t install it though cuz it doesn’t meet the load requirements. But too me it just looks better even if you have lowering links cuz with links you can adjust the height accordingly to the front and rear based on how you like it too sit. I use both lowering brackets and links as it allows me to trick the computer and lower it as much as I want. I put pictures from the side with the avant-garde rims 30/25 and Forgiato rims 30/30.

Can’t really notice in the pictures. But I’m OCD so little things bother me lol. Like the hood on this Conversion I did. I have a carbon fiber hood instead that will be going on to eliminate the awful protruding underbite bumper that drives me crazy.
Looks so much better with the facelift hood. This doesn’t bother others like it does too me. I wouldn’t do the conversion without adding a new hood it bothers me that much
You definitely get some 2 piece BC forged like these. They have a bunch that look amazing like I said before. Like adv1 rims but instead of $8k to $12k they are like half the price. Than you can run wide rims without them rubbing. They have even better looking ones than these. By far the best looking rims for the price
I like the bottom ones a lot more just need the faces further back with a larger lip and they would look even better like others they have that can be. These cannot cuz the spokes
FYI you wouldn’t want to just order the front spoiler from Revozport cause the shipping is too expensive to only get one part. You would want to order the whole kit or at least the front spoiler and rear diffuser.
As far as the prior design bumper I wouldn’t be able to get a deal just getting the bumper. It would have to be the aero kit or widebody kit too get a deal. The widebody kit would be a better deal than the aero kit. I would have too see if they would if it’s not for me. I know Revozport would cause I have asked for my friends before. And I would not pretend it’s for me cuz I don’t like lying especially to people I respect and and take care of me as much as they do.

as of right now, I'm running 22x10.5 rears et 35 with 295/25/22 tire, wheels and tires clears the inner shock tower by 4 mm.
if im going to go 22x11 in the rears which is 12.5mm wider, I need to lower the offset by 6mm to clear on the inside that 's why I think et28 would work.
et 35 on a 22x10.5 to me is conservative, even et30 would flush better on a 22x10.5
here are my temporary wheels
Brushed Satin Clear finish
what kind of discount on the prior design kit?
TIA

Hey guys I’ve been checking this post for awhile and decided to spacer up. I have a 2012 MS Sig P85 with 21” turbines. I ordered the 20mm Design 3 Adaptec Speedware kit.
I attempted to install I noticed the lugs on the spacers are to long. So after mounting the spacers and attempting to mount the wheel the lugs prevented a flush mount. They are too long. I did read the instructions that clearly stated they may need to be shortened.
However I haven’t read on this thread that anybody has mentioned having to go through that process of shortening. Although mechanically I able, I’m a bit
hesitant. Am I the only one who’s needing to take these steps for adding spacers?
Any help is welcomed.

You can cut them or you can buy shorter studs or buy longer studs and run spacers not adapters which won’t effect the offset either

Where'd you get that carbon fiber overlay for the front "grill"?
Also, have you had your car re-aligned since it was lowered? I only ask because your rear toe looks to be pretty toe-out
