What options are available, besides Porsche OEM 5mm? I have 7/15 on my C2S and looking for something similar for Panamera. Not sure that 5mm makes enough visual difference to make the change.

 

You should try the spacers from your carrera and tell us if they work.

 

I'm pretty sure the bolt pattern/size is different, but good point to check.

 

Pretty sure they are both 5-130. Would seem odd to me if Porsche used different bolt patterns between these cars.

 

These guys should know the exact answer.

Good point, I'll be calling them tomorrow.

 

Just verified with Wheel Enhancement that the spacers and bolts are good, but my rear 15mm are too aggressive for the Panamera (maybe stick out too far). IF I purchase the car today, I'll probably have the dealer put the 7s on the rear and leave the front stock (for now). I may end up playing around with the 15s later on.

Now it's a matter of deciding on the car and signing away my 997

Thanks for Wheel Enhancement for helping out! I just might be calling them soon to swap out the 19in Turbo wheels!!!

 

That is good news Wheel Enhancement could help you out. Seems like the Panamera would accept a larger spacer in the rear than the Carrera given the weight distribution differences.

Did they think 15mm was too agressive for the 911 as well?

Also, if you happen to be getting a turbo Pan with the 20" Turbo II wheel. I would be interested in helping you take those wheels off your hands. I like those better than the RS Spyder wheel but they werent an option when I got my car.

 

Yeah, we took a close look at it and the rear wheels on the Panamera don't sit as far within the wheel well as in the 911, so there isn't as much room to push the wheels outwards. I'm going to leave the front wheels alone, but put the 7mm spacers in the rear. Will post pics when I get that done.

As far as the wheels themselves, they worked with me on those and are simply ordering them from PCNA, so will be a simple swap. They sent me home with some Spyder wheels that were painted black. They look real good since the rims were still left polished. Just too much black for me. I can't sell these black ones as they were a dealer add-on in the first place.

 

Falb, if you get some new wheels, I might take the RS Spyder wheels off your hands for winter wheels.

 

Sounds good. Just need some Turbo IIs.

 

I know this is an old thread, but the info shared here help me greatly... I went w/ 7mm/R & 5mm/F. Thx!

 

Looks great! Notice anything different in the handling department?

 

No degradation at all from what I can see… Still corners and handles like a champ – Now it just looks more aggressive.

 

15 mm in back is perfect with Turbo II
7 mm in front
Could run 15 mm in front too, but personally prefer 7.

that's for those with air suspension in sport. not sure about coil suspension that's not lowered.
