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
Most of the engineering value in a forged wheel over a cast one shows up in rotational mass, not outright strength — both can meet the same load rating, but the forged piece gets there lighter. On a sedan platform tuned for everyday balance, that weight saving is felt directly in steering response and ride quality.
The TechArt Porsche 911 Carrera S Police Car ships from the factory on a 5x130 bolt pattern with a 71.6mm center bore and a F 19x8.5J ET57 / R 19x11J ET67 wheel. Our flush reference for the TechArt Porsche 911 Carrera S Police Car is F 19x9J ET48 / R 19x11.5J ET60.; our maximum aggressive reference is F 20x9J ET42 / R 20x12J ET55. — beyond that, expect clearance issues against the fender liner without further modification.
