BMW 3 Series wheel fitment — VII LCI G20/G21/G28
Overview
The seventh generation of the BMW 3 Series range consists of the BMW G20 (sedan version) and BMW G21 (wagon version, marketed as 'Touring') compact executive cars. The G20/G21 has been in production since mid-October 2018 with a facelift in July 2022. It is based on the Cluster Architecture (CLAR) platform featuring increased use of high-strength steel and aluminum, offering improved body rigidity and weight reduction compared to its predecessor. The G20 sedan and G21 Touring are assembled at various BMW plants globally, including Munich in Germany, Shenyang in China, San Luis Potosí in Mexico, Chennai in India, Rayong in Thailand, Jakarta in Indonesia, Kulim in Malaysia, Araquari in Brazil, and Chu Lai in Vietnam. The 3 Series Gran Turismo was discontinued for this generation.

|---|---|---|
| Front | 6.5J–8.5J | ET12–ET45 |
| Rear (staggered) | 8J–9.5J | ET29–ET45 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
