not sure about other custom wheel manufacturers but HRE will likely not make anything for 992s with those offsets.
[size=3]HRE will make any offset that the customers wants as long as the aluminum forgings can actually achieve the offset. With 1-piece wheels this sometimes poses a problem but not on their multi-piece wheels.[/size=3]

The HRE R101 Lightweight's use a very specific lightweight aluminum forging that has limitations on the offsets that can be used. If the offset that you want happens to be outside of this offset range, then the wheel automatically has to use a different aluminum forging which is not as lightweight and therefore is no longer an R101 Lightweight. Essentially turning it into a P101 which is lightweight in it's own right just now as extreme as the R101LW's.

Width, offsets, and ride height all work in unison with each other. If car A and B have the same wheel width & offset but car A has factory ride height and car B has lowered ride height, then the wheels/tires on both cars will have different degrees of "flushness". That it what a lot of people ordering wheels for customers don't understand. We take that into account when we order wheels for every single client and that's how we get everything nailed spot-on.

What's the weight on this set? I assume 21/22? They are very similar to the set I have but probably lighter...very nice.
Will two different wheels with the same offsets sit exactly the same off the rotor? For example, will a HRE 300FMR(two-piece) and a HRE P101(monoblock) both 20x8.5 ET45 sit exactly the same (inward and outward) if mounted on the same car?
Will a centerlock version and a 5 lug version of the same wheel sit exactly the same? For example, will a HRE P101 in centerlock and a HRE P101 in 5 lug, both 20x8.5 ET45 sit exactly the same (inward and outward) if mounted on the same car?
