Wheel Spacers
Wheel Spacers
I currently have 7mm Spacers on the rear and none on the front. Been wanting to add something to the front for a little more aggressive stance so was considering adding 5s to the front. But then I got the idea of going more aggressive and moving the 7s to the front and placing 14mm Spacers to the rear (same setup as I had on my C2S).
Has anyone installed wider spacers than 5/7 on their Panamera? Given the way the fenders are shaped, I don't think the tire would be exposed at the top, but it does look like it would sit wider than then fender edge on the bottom half of the wheel.
I can't find any 10mm spacers for the 5x130 pattern. If those were available I would probably go in that direction without any concern.
Any thoughts?

I think anything more than 7 on the rear would be too much. That is assuming you have the 20 inch Turbo II wheels. I think with the 19s you might get by with the 14 since the stock tires are only 285s.
I put 5mm in the front and 7mm in the rear on my Turbo II wheels and it looks good. Any more than that on the rear would put the wheels out too far in my opinion.

wbrownie - would you mind posting a pic of your ride with the 7mm and 5mm spacers? I also have the Turbo II rims and would like to see how they would look with the spacers - thanks in anticipation
I have the TurboIIs on the P2S also, and the 7s look good on the rear, but I'm drilling thinking about 14s. My C2S had the 19in Turbo wheels and the 14s brought the tires out to the edge of the fender at the top of the wheel. It looks like there's room for another 7mm for a similar fit on the Panamera, but I'm going to measure tomorrow and make a couple of calls to sponsors on this board to get their input. Either way, 7s will go on the front, just trying to figure out if the rears will go any wider.
When I get back to my desktop, I'll post pics of the C2S before/after of the rears as well as current view of the Panamera w/ 7s.

After taking another close look at the rear, I decided the 7s were enough and went ahead and purchased another set of 7s for the fronts as well. Here are a couple of pics of my C2S with (passenger side shot) and without (drivers side shot) the 14mm spacers. I loved the aggressive look that the 14s gave the C2S, but not sure the P2S is fine as-is with 7s in the front.
