Tires are within the fenders, it’s just 7 mm out in comparison to the OEM wheels. In EU that’s within the rules (max 15 mm per axel)

@ThomasR have you observed any impact to the car driving characteristics and also the range as well?Are the new wheels any lighter than the OEM ones?

i don't care about the rules...just things like rubbing the fender liner at full turn etc...
i'm in the process of choosing some 22's and I was going to do 27 and 45 offset. I want it to be flush, but not visibly outside of the fender.

The Macan EV is 5x130 bolt pattern, not the more standard VAG 5x112?

Personally I don’t pay much attention to wheel efficiencies. Realistically people are only charging to 70% or so on road trips, not using the full stated range because it is so slow to charge completely. And to be more specific, they are charging to whatever the car or app says they need to hit the next milestone. In practice this means if a wheel is knocking 10 or 15 miles of range off you’re just charging to 73% instead of 70%.

I Get the same range as i get on 20" with nordic studdless wintertires. 500km +/-
Not sure if they are lighter than the OEM ones.

-7 mm is not much of a difference, on most cars you can go -10-20mm before you are outside the fenders. On my Taycan CT I had 18 mm spacers with 21" (OEM specs) , they were flush. On the Macan EV i think maybe ET 20 and 38 will be flush if you have the widest fendellists, I have the narrow ones.

27 and 45 offset is surely inside.

Really Nice! What kind of efficiency are you getting with this setup? I guess the wheels are rated for EV’s?

Being forged, they're definitely lighter than the OEM ones otherwise it would be impossible to get the same range with the 20"s which is supposably increased. The winter tires reduced efficiency alone isn't that much great to counterbalance the difference due to the rim size.
