I've been scoping out wheels already .....of course.
i love the deep concave, low offset style AM wheel... I do like how, form the factory, the OE wheels are close tothe fenders on the Macan. But it looks like they have a super high offset.
that means aftermarket options for deep concave wheels are pretty much limited.
There's a website with wheel specs, (don't have the link and can't remember the name RN) and they have specs for the Macan already listed. who knows how accurate they are... but they list it as this:

Front 7.5w 30-34 offset (20's)
Front 8.5w 25-29 offset (21's)
Front 9w 27-31 offset (22's)

Rear 10w 47-51 offset (20's)
Rear 10.5w 45-49 offset (21's)
Rear 11w 45-49 offset (22's)

and these specs, from my understanding, are very low offset numbers for wheels 9-11 inches wide. but the looking at the vidoe's, i think these are incorrect.

The configurator lists the specs for each wheel, including offset, and that's what that site is using. I'd be very cautious about aftermarket wheels until shops have had a chance to see the Electric Macan in person.

Oh wow, i never dug that deep into the wheels on the configurator cuz i don't plan on keeping them anyway. but nice...i see that now.
if these specs are correct, there's not much wiggle room. literally 5mm. This is assuming they are leaving the same clearance to the shock.
