Suggestion
If it was me they would be 9"-11" wide at all four corners, and base your decision on what size rim is best suited for the size of tire you want to use on it.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Okay, so before the smart comments roll in... I had 18's and hit a curb and blew out the fronts. A friend took a full set of 20's off his 2004 recently, so I can use them and they are nearly identical to mine in appearance. I am trying to see if it's just the tire size thats wrong OR something else since the front tires are rubbing with tight corners, especially going up driveways, etc.
I have 245/30ZR20's on the front and 305/25ZR20's on the rear. Mathematically, they are nearly identical in height to the 18's I had since those had more tread height. Just these have thinner side walls obviously. It's the outer tire that hits the inner wheel well when turning so I'm wondering if a small spacer would work enough to move them out slightly or I had read once before that 235's on the front work but 245's are too wide.
I love the look of them honestly and I dont track the car, it's just a Sunday driver. I bought the car cheaper than I can buy a used Miata, so i'm not looking for a purist smart comments, just real help. Thanks
Ok I am getting a set of the Falken RT-7M wheels for my X-mas present , they are 22" wheels for $280 each and look pretty sweet.
What would be the correct setup for the Cayenne Turbo Model 2004?
8.5 front , 9.5 Rear or 9.5 all around?
Thanks
Well there is a lot of options available, you can go the staggered fitment of wider/narrower wheels and tires as long as the overall height of the tire is very close front to back, or you can go the same size at all four corners. This would allow tire rotations, probably better wear characteristics overall, less fuss. A lot of it depends on how you want yours to look, some like the very wide rear tire look, some are happy just to have the upsized wheels in the first place. If it was me they would be 9"-11" wide at all four corners, and base your decision on what size rim is best suited for the size of tire you want to use on it. Hope that makes sense...
Thanks it does make sense and staggered looks great but the only 2 widths available is 8.5 and 9.5 so im not sure if that will create the staggered effect. Would it ??
Most stock rims are 8" I went with a 9.5" rim with a 55 offset. Front is perfect rear could be a little further out so I am adding 17mm spacers. I also went with a 275/45 20 tire that fills out the wheel well a little better

Not much to be gained with those two choices, stick to the same size to make it easy for rotations etc. I would buy the widest rim available (9.5), choose your tire accordingly based on that rim dimension for best fitment. Enjoy!
