Panamera 22" vs. 20" turbo wheels

Just got my Pano 4S with sport chrono and the sport exhaust, power seats, carbon package, window shades, bose! The sport exhaust is an abosulte must, doesn't sound too loud in the car but it's loud as hell on the outside. I Sold my 997 turbo cab for this car and love it!!! The pano is worth every penny, i took a hard corner at 60 mph and the car power slid right through, better than the 911 at the limit, more predictable. Anyway, as if the handling wasnt enough, I was thinking of going with some lightweight 22" HRE wheels or Modulare. Anyone, do this upgrade yet? How is your ride quality, does it handle better? Any regrets? Thanks!!!!

WOW, nice Panny! I have grown quit fond of the Panamera as of late.
I would do a set of 22" HRE and a set of H&R springs to finish it off. Here are a few Panameras we have done for you to get a taste of how yours can look

Since many people chose 20" and 22" based on appearance, I'm curious what the real life performance aspects are? Not only tracking where the short sidewall advantage is obvious, but on the open road where potholes, curbs, road litter and speed bumps add spice to life. How many have blown out sidewalls, bent rims, etc?

With the forged monoblock stuff, you almost don't have to worry much about potholes and stuff....the monoblocks are pretty strong. Ride quality is not bad at all, especially if the car has air suspension.

Here are some we've done with Modulare, all in 22". I have plenty of shots of all of these cars, if more are needed just ask. I have several of these styles in stock in machined form, ready to finish in the color of your choice.


Modulare B14, brushed with black windows




Modulare B15, brushed




Modulare B1, satin black




Modulare B3, silver



Modulare B11, satin black




Modulare B11, silver




Modulare B1, satin black




Modulare B1, silver
