Default Aftermarket wheel / offset/ suspension thread

I have searched ..but there is no definitive thread on aftermarket wheel/ suspension/ offsets for 992. As more cars come on the road and more options become available, it would be helpful to have us post a photo of cars having been done with wheel - model - offset - any suspension changes . I wanted to visually fill the wheel wells on our Targa and considered spacers but ..then was spooked by the forum to using them…so now looking at wheel options with slightly more tuned offsets……sooooo….please share with the forum your aftermarket wheel selection and all the details you can to the setup you used. I would post our car and details but at this point, I would be one of the beneficiaries of this information.🙂

Good post. I think I am about to buy some new wheels for my 992 and wondered the same thing.

Searched, can't find an answer. 19/20" base 992 lowered with KW HAS, what size spacers to fill out the wheel well on a mild drop?

I went with Vossen HF-5’s on mine. Stock 20/21size but I believe the Vossen’s are slightly wider. Their offset puts them a little more flush than the stock Porsche spyder wheels. No drop and I have SPASM on my car. My car is featured on the Vossen website so you can get an idea of what it looks like there.

Love your car. It's nice to see fully painted mirrors for a change. Great thread idea OP!

This looks great. They don’t specify offsets on the site. Do you know what size/ offset you have?

HRE FF11 in satin black 20/21. Perfect fit for the 992.

Does anybody know the widths and offsets for the stock 19/20 and 20/21” rims? Would be great to know the baseline specs.

love the wheels, but your wheel gap is substantial. i'd be ordering up one of the HAS kits. the red one in this thread same issue, especially in front.

The gap doesn't seem substantial in real life, but does look big in that picture. Maybe it's the angle or maybe I had FAL activated. I live on a mountain and the drawback is an incredibly steep driveway. I don't think lowering the car is an option given my approach angle unfortunately.

No. Stock Pasm height. The 315 on the back helps to conceal it.
