How can I get a liting of OEM wheel offsets ?


Recommended Posts

Will be looking for winter wheels and tires soon for MY07 C4S and would prefer 18" OEM wheels with the correct offest for a wide body car to eliminate the need for spacers. Are the offsets of the OEM wheels for earlier cars listed somewhere ? Was thinking wheels for a 996 turbo or a 996 C4S would work. While I understand the logic of the smaller wheels and more narrow tires for snow, I won't need to drive it snow. I will drive in cold weather and maybe get caught in an occassional dusting though. Any reason to follow the smaller wheel - narrow tire rule in that case ? Any suggestions on wheels would be appreciated.

As a Contributing Member you can read the TSB 10/04 4440 Winter Tires and Wheels -- dated Sep 15, 2004 here online.

It has all the information...

Here is the latest information from Porsche on what size winter wheels and tires will work on a widebody vehicle. This should give you an idea of what offsets will work.
