Need Wheel Help!

If I were to get a set of wheels for my Cayenne Turbo, and they are 22x10, would I want a +41mm offset or a +60 offset.

Also, I will be doing Michelin Diamaris tires, and would I like to have your opinion on something; on the 22x10, should I run a
265/35/22 up front and a 285/35/22 in the back, or should I do 285/35/22 all the way around? Thank you so much. By the way, here are the wheels, just insert Porsche center cap!:

I dont know if you remember me, but I used to be on BNZSPORT and also repped a red coupe. It had the red RENNTech wheels on it, so you and I were alike rockin the red 2 door benzes! Anyways, thanks for your help, and I may be PMing you about some prices on some 21" and 22" wheels you have at your store.

Peter is the best, he knows everything about wheels I agree with him 295/30/22 and 22x10.0. Pirelli and Conti make that size

I agree that the 265 is the best to use if doing so all around. 285 should work in back, just keep in mind the AT Italia wheel is only availablein 10" wide, so the front tire profile is different than will be in the rear. I'd stay 265 all around for the best appearance. Give me a call if you need to discuss it any further or order, x.643.

By the way, a standard Porsche crest wont fit into the center assembly unless you modify it to fit. Just wanted to let you know.

thanks for your help Damon!

I saw on your website where it said 265's were optimal, but I think that is just not enough meat! I have 275's on the truck now, and I think it just needs a little more! Would either 285-35-22 or 295-30-22 rub all the way around? Thanks for your help.

The 285 is rather short and not really recommended unless the gross axle rating is above 3750 lbs. It barely holds enough air to properly support the truck's weight. 295 hold more air, but we have never tested that size on the truck. If the other guys here have used it without problems than it will fit the 10" wide rim. One thing that concerns me is tramlining with such a wide tire. A 295 is really wide for the front and may grab and follow ruts in the road.
