991.2 S 19 Inch Winter Wheel
991.2 Owner's Manual lists Carrera and Carrera S 19 Winter Wheels/Tires as:
Tires:
Front: 235/40 R 19 92V Rear: 295/35 R 19 100V
Wheels:
Front: 8.5J x 19 RO 50 Rear: 11J x 19 RO 77
The Tire Rack lists:
Tires:
Front: 235/40 R 19 92 V Rear: 285/35 R19 99V
Wheels:
Front 19 x 8.5 Offset: 54 mm Rear: 19x11 Offset: 62 mm
If the Porsche spec RO values given are offsets, there seem to be large differences between them and those of the Tire Rack Wheels, particularly at the rear.
Am I missing something? Is this likely to be a problem with the Tire Rack wheels and tires?
I have the Tire Rack Wheels and Tires as above from my 991.1 and would like to use them on my 991.2. They are already mounted, balanced, etc. with TPMS sensors installed.
I seem to have read that 991.2 TPMS sensors have been changed from 991.1 sensors. Does anyone know if this is the case and if I will have to obtain new sensors even if I can use the wheels and tires?

I have 19 inch Tire Rack Winter Wheels and tires from my 911.1 on my current 911.2 C2S. No problems with the different offsets during last winter, or now.
I did have problems with the old TPMS sensors and had them replaced with new "991.2" Tire Rack sensors. They were much cheaper at the Tire Rack than from Porsche.

Tire Rack does not offer aftermarket wheels with the Porsche991.2 OEM offsets. I bought the Starcke Design BC wheels with offsets of 52 and 67, front and rear. They fit fine. Essentially, the front wheels are set about a tenth of inch more into the wheels than stock, while the rears are a tenth further out. Neither is a big difference.
They accidentally shipped my wheels with the 991.1 TPMS sensors and the system did not recognize them. When they replaced them with their 991.2 sensors, everything worked the way it was supposed to.
