Very nice. Thanks for posting.

Does it rub turning left in the lowest suspension setting only or at all levels?

All levels it seems like. I am going to remove the spacers to see if that helps any. Will keep you posted.

I ended up running 285/30/22 all around on 22X9 +45mm offset 22X11 +50mm offset.

This is the max width/height for my setup (if yours is 22x9.5 +61mm, 22x11 +61mm), mine is 10mm more than your setup (outer position).

Thanks for your feedback, I would have had a good chance of rubbing since with a 15mm spacer you rubbed and I'm 10mm more, so I'd risk that the 5mm difference in rubbing.

It was raining, but here you go. It looks like it would rub, but that is in the lowest (Sport Plus) setting and it doesn't.

She's looking good Chedman. I'm surprised you aren't rubbing in the front when turning with those tire and wheel specs.

Benblack said he didn't rub (though he runs a widebody), so I went for it. It doesn't rub even at full turn/U-turn at lowest setting. I went up an angle at my driveway and didn't rub then either.

I'm guessing if I hit a bump while full turn - it would rub, but that would be rare.

At comfort mode, it's fine - which I drive in 99% of the time.

Looks good fellas. Even before my widebody the tires didn't rub and mine are big. Depends on the offsets they custom made my 3 piece wheels and no rubbing. Now hitting a bump at full turn I don't know never experienced it

Hi guys, sorry to hijack this thread because I'm about to fit a set of rims that flush with the body but I heard when the car is park for a couple of days, the air suspension will drop to a very low level so asking any anyone here experienced that? Does it drop to a level that the fender will rest on the tires?

I haven't experienced that. But I have experienced the car dropping significantly when changing tires/wheels. When I jack one side up and put the car back down, the suspension auto adjusts and lowers it self completely - where the tires are almost tucked inside.

Also, when I jack one side up, the other side almost touches the fender (opposite side), so I probably wouldn't go extremely flush, also to save your body/paint.

My hope is to try the two fitments that are in bold below. Any thoughts on if the 265/35/22 with 29.3" diameter will fit?

Stock Turbo II Wheels:
Front: 255/40/20 on 20"x9.5" with 65mm offset = 28.0" diameter
Rear: 295/35/20 on 20"x11" with 68mm offset = 28.1" diameter

Fitment that does NOT work:
Front: 285/35/22 = 29.9" diameter = rubbing in front
Rear: unknown, but irrelevant since fronts don't work

Fitments that MIGHT work (but matching tires can be hard to find):
Front: 255/35/22 = 29.0" diameter (no matching tire that I can find)
Rear: 295/30/22 = 29.0" diameter (no matching tire that I can find)

Front: 255/35/22 = 29.0" diameter (PIRELLI P ZERO NERO GT 280 AA A)
Rear: 305/30/22 = 29.2" diameter (PIRELLI P ZERO NERO GT 280 AA A)

Front: 265/35/22 = 29.3" diameter (PIRELLI SCORPION ZERO ASIMMETRICO 420 A A)
Rear: 295/30/22 = 29.0" diameter (PIRELLI SCORPION ZERO ASIMMETRICO 420 A A)


Fitments that do work:
Front: 275/30/22 = 28.5" diameter
Rear: 325/25/22 = 28.4" diameter

Front: 275/30/22 = 28.5" diameter
Rear: 335/25/22 = 28.6" diameter (PIRELLI P ZERO)

Front: 285/30/22 = 28.7" diameter
Rear: 325/25/22 = 28.4" diameter

Front: 285/30/22 = 28.7" diameter
Rear: 335/25/22 = 28.6" diameter (PIRELLI P ZERO)

Front: 265/30/22 = 28.3" diameter (PIRELLI P ZERO NERO GT)
Rear: 315/25/22 = 28.2" diameter (PIRELLI P ZERO NERO GT)
Waking up this old tread... ;-)
Im looking at this size which look supergood in terms of difference between back and front.
I cant see the sizes it in the list above but for me this look pretty good for a Panamera Turbo 2010? :-D

Front: 265/35/22 = 29.3"
Rear: 305/30/22 = 29.2"
Dunlop SP Sport Maxx


What do you the experts think?

Cheers
Pete

@Chedman13

Did you ever try this out?
Front: 265/35/22 = 29.3" diameter (PIRELLI SCORPION ZERO ASIMMETRICO 420 A A)
Rear: 295/30/22 = 29.0" diameter (PIRELLI SCORPION ZERO ASIMMETRICO 420 A A)



I´m mainly interested in the fronts since Im thinking on the same size?!
I will run 22" with ET50 and 10" width rim? What did you use?

Grateful for a answer! :-)

Cheers
Pete
