Suggestion · Original poster

I am aware the tyres will probably not fit but am keen to use the rims, as I like the look (10 spoke), and then can recycle the tres to recover some of the cost.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Searched this and other forums, and no info, but I am tempted by a set of Panamera (2008) 18inch rims for my 2003 C4S (Tip). Was hoping somebody else had tried this, and for any tips or advice prior to me taking the plunge (even if its 'don't do it'!!). I have been offered a set from a 2008 with winter tyres (unused ). Rears are a little narrower (9 not 11). I am aware the tyres will probably not fit but am keen to use the rims, as I like the look (10 spoke), and then can recycle the tres to recover some of the cost. Any observations appreciated...

POST 2Original post

It'll come down to offsets and tire sizes. Without knowing that, there is no way to tell if they will fit.

POST 4Original post

Factory wheels are gonna be heavier and also higher offsets. Plus most of the ones I've seen are ugly IMO.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
