How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
A big saloon lives or dies on ride quality, and the wheel is the first thing that ruins it. Going wider and lower without watching load rating and offset trades away exactly the composure you paid for. Forging lets you add diameter and width while keeping rotating mass close to the factory figure.
The Porsche Panamera Diesel runs a 5x130 fitment, 71.6mm center bore, and a F: 18x8J wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is F 21x9J ET55 / R 21x10.5J ET48, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Porsche Panamera Diesel. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is F 22x9J ET40 / R 22x11J ET50 - beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Porsche Panamera Diesel OE Wheel Specs
The 2014 Porsche Panamera Diesel (Performance Sedan) uses a 5x130 bolt pattern with a 71.6mm center bore. Factory wheels are F: 18x8J R: 18x9J.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Keeps unsprung weight low to preserve the factory handling balance
- Matches the wider, performance-oriented tire sizing typical of this platform
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake package and suspension geometry
- Balances grip with ride comfort for daily and spirited driving
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Porsche Panamera Diesel (2014) we drill the 5x130 pattern and cut the centre bore to 71.6mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F 21x9J ET55 / R 21x10.5J ET48 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Porsche Panamera Diesel.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
F 22x9J ET40 / R 22x11J ET50 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: F 18x8J ET60 → ~6.86″ F backspacing, R 18x9J ET63 → ~7.48″ R backspacing
- Flush: F 21x9J ET55 → ~7.17″ F backspacing, R 21x10.5J ET48 → ~7.64″ R backspacing
- Max: F 22x9J ET40 → ~6.57″ F backspacing, R 22x11J ET50 → ~7.97″ R backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Porsche spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Porsche Panamera Diesel? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Custom Forged Wheels for the Porsche Panamera Diesel (2014)
Everything above is reference data. If you want wheels actually built to it, that is what ANKUSI does: we are a forged wheel factory in Guangzhou, China, IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 certified, forging on our own 10,000-ton press and producing over 120,000 wheels a year. Forging blank, CNC machining, finishing, coating and inspection all happen in the same building — nothing is subcontracted and nothing is relabelled from another manufacturer.
Every set is cut to order, so the 5x130 pattern and the 71.6mm centre bore are machined for this car specifically rather than shimmed with adaptor rings. Diameter, width, offset, concavity, monoblock or multi-piece construction and the finish are all yours to choose.
Designs we already tool for the 5x130 pattern — each one is re-cut to your sizes and offsets:

What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Porsche Panamera Diesel use?
The 2014 Porsche Panamera Diesel uses a 5x130 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Porsche Panamera Diesel use?
The Porsche Panamera Diesel uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x130), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Porsche Panamera Diesel?
The Porsche Panamera Diesel's center bore is 71.6mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Porsche Panamera Diesel?
Factory wheels on the Porsche Panamera Diesel are F: 18x8J R: 18x9J.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Porsche Panamera Diesel without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is F 22x9J ET40 / R 22x11J ET50. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Porsche Panamera Diesel?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend F 21x9J ET55 / R 21x10.5J ET48 as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Porsche Panamera Diesel.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Porsche Panamera Diesel?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Porsche Panamera Diesel?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 7.17" backspacing up front and 7.64" in the rear.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Porsche Panamera Diesel?
Yes — the Porsche Panamera Diesel's factory and our recommended flush/max fitments already use staggered sizing (different width front and rear), and ANKUSI can forge matching staggered sets to your target offsets.
