Vorsteiner guys normally don't tell you the custom offsets, so I didn't know it myself until received the wheels in boxes and measured them at home. The wheels are 20" VS-310 F 20x8.5 ET20, R 20x10.0 ET28, with Michelin Pilot Super Sport F 245/35, R 285/30 (square shoulder):

The measurements from your seller sound very aggressive. Those wheels poke 6 mm more in front and 4 mm more rear. So I believe your concern is right, and I hope the other members with 21" need chime in to clarify. What else is to be considered, is the square shoulder setup will be 255 front and 295 rear, while going a little stretched 245 and 285 may save you from rubbing with 21" even on those aggressive offsets.

The wheels of that brand, size and price tag worth a good effort to be sold. You should request the seller more about from what car is the set, please provide fitment pictures etc.

The wheels were removed from a 2011 BMW 740i (F01) lowered on Eibach Pro-Kit springs. Offsets are +20 / +30 (F / R) which are the same as on the Vorsteiner VR-7 demo vehicle: http://www.7post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=360234
