I am curious as to how many of you have actually bought a set of aftermarket wheels for your panameras? and anyone bigger than 20s? Please post pics on this thread, I need a lot of help in deciding...it will be awesome. Thanks!

Well...i'm probably the wrong person to comment on this, but I would say quite a few...most all requests are for 22s, with some 21s sprinkled in. This seems to run across any age group.

Here are some we've done - all of these are 22":

Modulare B11 - 1 piece forged



Modulare D1 - 3pc forged, deep lip



Modulare C11 - 3pc forged, concave



Modulare C11 - 3pc forged, concave, all black



Modulare C11 - 3pc forged, concave, all black



Modulare C11, 3pc concave, hidden hardware



Modulare M13, 3pc standard profile



Modulare M13, 3pc standard profile



Modulare M13, 3pc standard profile

The wheel wells are so big on the panamera that 22s look reasonable...I have the 20" Turbo II wheels on my 4S and cannot imagine having anything smaller.

I have the Turbo II wheels and think they are the best looking wheels available (stock or aftermarket). I see no need to go bigger or get aftermarket unless you have base rims.

I agree with you ...just seeing if I should get into the 21 - 22 craze, nice set of stock Turbo II are always going to be my back up.....

While I'm partial to my 20in TurboII wheels, I must say that the Modulare wheels are the best looking aftermarket wheels I've seen on the Panamera as they have a definite OEM look to them. If I were going to go the 21-22 route, it would either be the Modulare or the Rinspeeds:
