Panamera 21" wheel thread
#32
so to get that same "flush" with the wider wheel widths, 12in width = 54ET, 12.5in = 60ET,....but again I'm slighty rubbing with 315mm tires. so moving the offset inwards slightly should hopefully clear. For example, I'm about to test 11in at 49ET instead of being at 41ET, that would be 12in at 62ET or 12.5in at 68ET(running 315mm tires). I will eventually test 3mm more outwards at 46ET if 11in at 49ET can be pushed out a bit more. In case anyone is wondering....zero ET is right smack in the middle of the your width measure in mm.
Also, going for wider wheels will just increase the rim poke. Where mine has the tires that bulge out instead and the rim sunk in from the tires. Plenty of ways to approach to what you are trying to accomplish, offset, rim width, tire width, rim poke, tire poke, stretch(narrow tires) but this should give you an idea or a reference point
Thanks!, stock PASM at the lowest setting

Dude that's money. I wouldn't mess with it if that was my stance. Good job.

21" BC Forged RZ21s
I know this thread is old, but figured I'd add mine for reference if it can help someone.
I was on the wall between 21 and 22s. Came close to bailing and getting 22s because the selection of rims is so much better, but stuck to my guns and ended up grabbing a set of bc forged rz21's in a brushed finish. 9.5 front, 11.5 rear.
I bought the car used, low miles. It was a one owner with an absurd service history with all the scary stuff recently taken care of so I bought it, although my preference would have been a car with black trim rather than chrome. But as luck would have it, I think the wheels i lucked into complete the look well. And the brushed finish of the wheels has a slight warm hue to it which compliments the warm tone of the carbon grey finish.

Yep absolutely.
Ride comfort is not at all compromised going from the factory 20" up to 21".
Especially with these rims, the steering and overall car felt much lighter and a little more agile to drive over the factory 20s, which as an overall package was heavier. These 21s were lighter.
