Default Question on wheels??

hello to all here. I’m usually on the aircooled side of the forum and this is my first post on the panamera forum. I have zero experience in regards to putting aftermarket wheels on these cars.

I have a 996 with 19 inch champion wheels and an 89 911 carrera on Ruf 17 inch Speedline wheels. That’s about the biggest yet still nice looking you can go with those style of cars according to the body IMO.

My question here is, what sizes of wheels do people normally run on these cars in regards to a nice aftermarket concave or deep lip wheel? Staggered

21 or 22 and what size tires are recommended for each set up? I apologize beforehand if this has been brought up in the past and if anyone can kindly share a pic or two I’d truly appreciate it. I’m getting the wife a 2010 4s and want to make it a little extra nice for her. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, GABE

I would stick to a 20" diameter or the ride might be a little rough....there are many wheel options but I always found that sticking to the Porsche OEM selection might be the way to go.
