What did you end up getting as far as offset on the front bearing that 9.5 wide wheel? 245 tire I assume? Trying to spec one and am concerned about it rubbing the intercooler tubing.

Can you tell us more about this? Are you the original owner of the HRE's? Have they always had gold center or were they refinished to the gold?

This is amazing information. Back in 2014 we sold a set of these wheels with dark grey centers (called Gloss Charcoal) to a client in California that had a 997 GT2. The specs were 19x9 || 19x12 with 245/35/19 and 315/25/19 Michelin PS2's. I'm not sure if it's the same set or not but it could be! The only way to know would be to read the serial number engraved on the backpad. All 4 wheels would have the same serial number so only 1 would have to be read. If it was the same set I would LOVE to share your photos on our website and to HRE.

The insurance settlement on the 2011 Turbo S...enabled a straight-across purchase of this 2018 Panamera 4S; a far better car!
