Hi all,
I am considering changing my 20" Turbo wheels from my Panamera 3.6 2013 (Normal suspension not air suspension option, car will not be lowered) to 22" BC Forged Rims and would ask if anyone knows the most aggressive wheel set up for this model.
I am currently being told the following:

Fronts
22INCH 9.5J ET45 (DEALER 1)
22INCH 9.5J ET48 (DEALER 2)

Rears
22INCH 11.5J ET55 (DEALER 1)
22INCH 11.0J ET52 (DEALER 2)

Tyre size ideal is
265/30/22
315/25/22

However due to pot holes i would want to know if i can run for more meat on my tires
255/35/22 on a 9.5J Wheel
305/30/22 on a 11.5J - 12J Wheel

Thank you all in advance

 

When I had my Panamera, from the day I got it I had 22’s on it, hit several potholes and never had any issues. I once hit a pothole where it bent the rim but no major damage to the tire. I was running:
Front: 265/30/22 Wheel 10in wide
Rear: 315/25/22 Wheel 11in wide

I could be wrong but I don’t think a 305 will fit properly on 11.5 inch wheel. Rim may protrude from tire.
I’m not familiar with which look would be more aggressive.
I hope this helps.

 

Hi F45_Cayman

Do you mind telling my your offsets as wheel.

 

This thread should help you a bit.

Hi guys got off phone with BC forged NA

and they said the most aggressive set using the correct tyre size

265/30/22 9.5J ET 45

315/25/22 11.5J ET 55

does anyone have experience with this

 

Pretty good specs but id put more meat on those tires with the width of the wheels.

 

Those are the sizes I'm running on my PTT. It's perfect.

 

Wish we had your perfect FL roads. NY/NJ roads are the horrible!

 

I hear that! I would never drive it with 22" wheels in a state with junk roads. Terrible.....

 

I'm running those same tires (265/30/22 and 315/25/22) on 9.5" up front and 11" rear. I originally purchased a set of 255s and 305s, but as soon as I saw them on the wheel they cam back off. Too much "roll" and lip exposed for my taste.

 

I just installed 22 on my car as well and I ended up with the classic recommended sizes of 265f/315r. I think when the tires need to be replaced, I’ll try to go with a different more agressive combo. I would love to run 325 or 335 if possible.

here is a bad phone pic of the setup

 

Running 21's here in the bay area and already bent 2 of my front wheels on 2 different occasions. 3 piece wheels. Bay Area has one of the worst roads in the country next to LA and NY.

So winter time I'm switching back to stock wheels.
