When it launches in the first quarter of 2020, the all-new Buick Encore GX will offer a total of four-wheel options, comprised of two standard wheels and two available wheels. We’ve compiled a comprehensive guide to 2020 Buick Encore GX wheels, complete with pictures, availability info, and other details for your browsing and shopping pleasure.
Overall, all 2020 Buick Encore GX wheels are made of aluminum, are 18 inches in diameter, and vary in design and finish.
In addition, wheel availability varies by trim level. For instance, the 18-inch Bright Silver-painted aluminum wheels (RQH) are standard only on Preferred models, while the 18-inch machined aluminum wheels with High Gloss Dark Android pockets (PXJ) are standard on Select and Essence models.

While Buick doesn’t offer a wide variety of wheel choices for the 2020 Buick Encore GX, we do think the selections that are available are rather good looking. What’s more, we expect the wheel choices to expand shortly after the model’s introduction.

any idea when the Enspire will be revealed?
Unclear at the moment, but likely in the first half of 2020 CY.
Look great sitting in garage after the lawnmower engine blows up
Thanks for the article and pics of the rims. They all look good to me.
I really love the look of this new Encore GX. I was so excited to learn more about it and was (key word, was) looking forward to getting one. But the article a few weeks back that listed the engines as only turbo 3 cyl along with only offering a CVT (front drive models) just blew my dreams out the door. I don’t have so much of a problem with the 3 cyl, but it’s the CVT that kills it for me. I fully understand from the article that the 9 speed auto will be available with the AWD. But two things: First, who the heck needs 9 speed? Nobody. Second, I live in southern California and have zero need nor desire for AWD. I don’t want to pay for it nor have the extra fuel use. So it’s looking like I will try to get into an old style 2020 if I can find one. Still a good looking SUV and has a great 6 speed auto.
Francisco, thank you for your report about the wheels for the Buick Encore GX. They each are very stylish – none of them look cheap. Maybe the vehicle exterior color will determine which wheel looks the very best?
Where is this vehicle built?
