50e 21in/915m front wheel use on rear

shawnrw · 10-18-2023, 03:26 PM

Hello,

I have a 2024 50e on order with the 915m 21” staggered wheels. I was wondering if it's possible to purchase two front 915m 21” wheels to run on the rear to achieve a square setup and allow more tire options. I would plan to run 275/45 r21 tires all around to match the load limits of the previous rear tires. Thanks for any help!

Yes. It is ok. The car doesn’t know.

Try to sell rear wheels here so somebody can do square rear wheel setup!

Thanks for the replies! I think a rear square setup would need spacers, not sure, but I’ll list them here.
