you can see the pictures here, he uses 21" but I think you can figure it out how it looks like if it is 20".

Andrewlim, these look very similar to Forgestars CF10. I think there is a member selling his set on the forum. Maybe worth checking out. I am away otherwise would have taken pictures of my ride with them on. Search the forum there are a few pictures on here to get an idea. GL.

I got 20x11 ET46 with 295/30/20 with no rubbing.

I see guys with 10.5" in the rear often go with ET38-ET40.

I have some AG M368 and I want to get the Essen!

I called my rim shop and asked how much for the F10 fit. PM me and I'll tell you how much they were charging me for rims only.

Does anyone know how they put they swapped the Niche centercaps with the BMW ones? I love the Niche Essen but hate the Niche centercap and would probably buy them over the Rohana RC10's if I am able to use a BMW centercap.

Hey Dan!! Looks awesome. I just got those 21 inch wheels and was really happy with the purchase. One issue i noticed is that they are almost touching the control arm in the front. My set up in the front is around 1/8 of an inch away from the control arm. Did you have same issue ? My tires are 255/35 in the front and 285/30 in the rear

It's a direct swap, pop niche caps out and put oem caps in

I don't have this issue because I run a 245 up front and also run a 10mm spacer for a more flush look. It matches the rear much better this way. Thanks!

Essen

Dan, your car is inspiring to say the least. My 535 should be showing up next week and I'm determined to produce this look...at least you'll never see me because I live in Japan

Looking for a quote for Niche Essen 21" to fit 535I M-sport. Want runflats, mount and balance with TPMS installed. I just want to mount. Shipping to Seattle is ok. I can have them forwarded to me from there. Please Pm me dealers!
