Fitted and Tuned Panamera Turbo S

Freshly finished this customers Porsche Panamera and gave it a look that is sure to turn heads!

Niche Essen M147′s 21×9 up front and 21×10.5 in the rear; wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sports, 265/30r21 in the front and 295/30r21 in the rear.

VRtuned ECU to unleash the full potential of this car's powerplant and a KW Lowering Module to control the factory air ride and give her the perfect stance.

Here are some pictures from our photoshoot

First time I see a Panny on 21's and I must say IMO it looks better than 22s.

What are the numbers with the VRTuned ECU?

Nice Work!!

A tad too "slammed" for me.... I personally do not like the look when the tire actually tucks under the fender


otherwise, looks great wonderful color combo

Same here. The severe alignment issues with the rear wheels due to excessive lowering also stand out for me. The car looks damaged.

How did the 295's in the rear work out? I've got 21" hre's on mine now and the michelin's are due for replacement but no longer made in 305/30/21 which is what I'm running now and the recommended size to go along with the 265/35/21 fronts. Just curious as to whether that caused any issues with the AWD system?

I was about to say. Is this a Turbo S or S. It looks like a plain S to me.

I was at porsche today and was just looking at 14' GTS with 21" asked if they have any issues getting tires for those wheels. They said no. They can get it, but the GTS was 295/30-35/21's all around.

actually wouldn't mind that set up, looked like it still had meat in the tires for ride quality.

The 295s worked great without any issues!
