Installed 2013 tesla model s wheels on my 2016 QX70.
Wheel: 21x9
Bolt pattern 5x120 to 5x114.3
Adapter plate: Aluminum with m14x1.5 bolts
I designed a better adapter plate in autocad. It will allow the weight of the vehicle to rest on center bore of the rim instead on the conical lugs.

I'm usually not one to use other vehicles rims on a different vehicle, but I think that looks good...
 
Looks good, but as Pinstripe said, why not use FX 21" turbine wheels and eliminate the use of adapters.

Had a hard time finding a set available. These ran me 2300 in total, including powder coat, tpms sensors and mounting/balancing
 
I always thought those Tesla wheels looked like my LE Turbines....I think ours are 21x9.5 with 50mm offset
