Toying with the idea of Porsche 911 wheels for my new Superb II FL 170 Elegance.

 

Can anybody tell me the above info please?

Now that's different!!

 

If you have 18s the offset should be 46. Bore is 57.1 and bolts are 5x112 AFAIK.  What size wheels are you looking to replace with?

19's most likely.  Will there be any issues with rubbing do you think?  Warranty implications?

19's would fit fine

 

Speak to the garage regarding warranty, as you would need to run PCD adapters

Wouldn't think there would be rubbing issues.  A few guys here on the forum have them and don't seem have any huge problems - have a look around as there are a few good examples on here!.  Are you doing anything to your suspension settings?

Is what I'm doing to mine!!! (Merc SL 8.5x18 et25)

If you want to see how they will fit - www.willtheyfit.com

I've got 19"s on mine. No problem at all. But then their 5x112

If you're going for Porsche, then they are 5x130 meaning about a 20mm adapter - so keep your ET on the original wheels somewhere around 50-52, that way it should fill the arches nicely

I'm at a loss now as to what to do.

 

Been having a re-think and was contemplating keeping to 18's in order to not have the expense of new tyres too?  The tyres are not a deal breaker but worth considering?

 

Been searching now for ages over a few days and the ideal would be to get the exact same i.e. 112 x 5, ET 46 or 1mm either way, 57mm CB and 7.5J width - not easy to find what i'd like.  Diamond cut would be nice - found nice Golf R 5 spoke 18'' jobbies that are diamond cut with gloss black inserts.

 

Also just toying with the idea of powder coating the Trinity wheels - anthracite or shadow chrome?

 

Dunno.  Anybody on here decent with photoshop that could help me please?

 

For info, it's a FL Elegance Twin Door in Silver with 18'' Trinity.

 

Thanks, Dave :-)
