The best wheels for your Porsche 992.2 Turbo S depend on the result you want: a defined BBS fitment, a custom OEM+ stance, a classic modular look or a larger 21/22-inch configuration. Wheel design is the starting point; dimensions, tyres and suspension determine how the complete setup works.
At BaanVelgen, our shortlist brings together four distinct choices: BBS FI-R EVO, BC Forged AF55, BC Forged MLE81 and HRE 305 in its current FMR-X configuration. This guide explains their roles, the original wheel specification and how to approach a custom setup for your Turbo S.

Porsche 992.2 Turbo S: Original Wheel Sizes and Fitment
The 992.2 Turbo S uses a staggered 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheel configuration with centerlock mounting. Porsche lists the following wheel and tyre dimensions for the European specification:
| Position | Wheel size | Offset | Tyre size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Front | 9.5 × 20 inches | ET44 | 255/35 ZR20 |
| Rear | 12 × 21 inches | ET63 | 325/30 ZR21 |
These figures provide a useful reference when comparing replacement wheels. An aftermarket set can retain the original diameters while using different offsets or widths to change its position within the arches.
OEM, OEM+ or 21/22-Inch: Which Configuration Suits You?
Original-size configuration: retain the 20/21-inch proportions
A 20-inch front and 21-inch rear setup is the natural starting point if you like the factory proportions and want to change the wheel design or finish. The BBS FI-R EVO offers a confirmed application in these diameters, while custom-made wheels allow further choices in width, offset and appearance.
Retaining the original diameters also gives you a clear reference for tyre selection. Reusing existing tyres still requires a check of their condition, specification and compatibility with the selected wheel widths.
OEM+: original diameters with a tailored stance
An OEM+ configuration keeps the 20/21-inch format while tailoring wheel widths and offsets for a fuller position within the arches. The aim is a deliberate, cohesive appearance that works with the car's bodywork and ride height.
The intended wheel position can be built into the custom width and offset, creating a fuller stance without relying on spacers, which is not possible
There is no single universal OEM+ offset. The right combination depends on wheel width, tyre choice, clearance and whether the car will remain at its original ride height or use lowering springs.
21-inch front and 22-inch rear: a larger visual statement
A custom 21/22-inch configuration is an option to explore when you want the wheels to have more visual presence. It gives the design greater emphasis and can form the basis of a distinctive wheel and suspension combination.
The tyre package is central to this choice. A larger wheel diameter does not mean the overall tyre diameter should increase by the same amount. We assess suitable tyre sizes, front-to-rear rolling circumference, load and speed requirements, and clearance before defining the final specification.
Discuss your priorities with us, including everyday comfort, road conditions and appearance, so the configuration reflects how you use the car.

Four Featured Wheels for the Porsche 992.2 Turbo S
Our selection gives you four different directions. The BBS dimensions below are confirmed for this application. BC Forged and HRE are approached as custom configurations, with the final specification established for your individual order.
| Wheel | Why consider it? | Configuration approach |
|---|---|---|
| BBS FI-R EVO | A defined BBS option in original wheel diameters | Confirmed 20/21-inch centerlock specification |
| BC Forged AF55 | Custom monoblock design with tailored dimensions and finish | Made-to-order specification |
| BC Forged MLE81 | Classic motorsport character with a modular step-lip design | Made-to-order specification |
| HRE 305 FMR-X | A classic five-spoke alternative with custom finish options | Current successor to the 305 FMR; specified to order |
BBS FI-R EVO: Confirmed 20/21-Inch Centerlock Fitment
The BBS FI-R EVO is our featured choice for owners who want a BBS wheel with a defined 992.2 Turbo S application. It retains the original front and rear wheel diameters and offers a clear specification to evaluate before ordering.
| Position | BBS reference | Wheel size | Offset | Mounting |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Front | FI-R EVO 204 | 9.5 × 20 inches | ET44 | Centerlock |
| Rear | FI-R EVO 221 | 12 × 21 inches | ET60 | Centerlock |
The rear BBS wheel uses ET60, compared with the original ET63. At the same 12-inch width, this places the wheel 3 mm further outward. It is therefore useful to distinguish between retaining the original wheel sizes and reproducing every factory dimension.

BC Forged AF55: A Custom Monoblock Direction
The BC Forged AF55 belongs to the brand's monoblock range. It is one of our featured options for owners who want to choose a design and then build the dimensions and finish around their Turbo S.
Start with the intended result: original-size proportions, a fuller OEM+ stance or a larger 21/22-inch direction. We then work through the wheel specification together with the tyre package and planned ride height.
For an understated result, consider a finish that complements the body colour and brake calipers. For more contrast, make the wheel finish a deliberate accent. The specification and finish should be chosen together, since both shape how the wheel sits visually on the car.
Choose the AF55 if: you want a custom monoblock option with scope to tailor the overall stance and appearance.
Request a BC Forged AF55 configuration or explore the BC Forged collection.
BC Forged MLE81: Classic Motorsport Character
The BC Forged MLE81 brings a different aesthetic to the shortlist. Its two-piece modular construction and step-lip design suit owners who appreciate a more classic motorsport appearance with visible depth and finish contrast.
The centre and lip provide scope to build a finish combination around the car. A contrasting lip can emphasise the wheel's construction, while a more restrained combination can make the design feel integrated with the exterior.
Final lip depth and wheel profile depend on the required dimensions and brake clearance. We establish these as part of the specification rather than assuming every reference image can be reproduced on every car.
Choose the MLE81 if: you want a custom wheel with classic character and the visual detail of a modular design.
Explore the BC Forged MLE81 and request your specification.
HRE 305 FMR-X: A Classic Five-Spoke Alternative
The HRE 305 adds a classic five-spoke design to the selection. For owners considering the 305 FMR, HRE now identifies the current successor as the 305 FMR-X.
Its two-piece configuration offers another way to combine a forged wheel centre with a separately finished rim. The broad five-spoke layout gives it a distinct identity within this shortlist.
We confirm the current construction, centerlock application, dimensions and finish options when preparing your proposal.
Choose the HRE 305 if: you prefer a classic five-spoke design and want a bespoke HRE configuration.

What Matters Beyond Wheel Diameter?
Centerlock mounting
A wheel for the Turbo S must use the correct centerlock application. A wheel described broadly as fitting a Porsche 992 is not enough to establish compatibility with this specific model.
With a custom order, mounting requirements form part of the specification from the outset, alongside wheel dimensions and brake clearance.
Brake clearance
The 992.2 Turbo S has a substantial PCCB brake package, with 420 mm front and 410 mm rear discs. Wheel diameter alone does not establish clearance: the barrel shape and the space behind the spokes also matter.
This is why a final custom specification includes a brake-clearance check, even when the nominal wheel size appears suitable.
Tyre specification
Tyres complete the wheel package. Width, profile, load index and speed rating must suit the vehicle and the selected wheels. On a staggered setup, the relationship between front and rear rolling circumference also needs to be considered.
We select the tyre combination alongside the wheels, particularly for 21/22-inch configurations and setups with altered widths.
Ride height and usable clearance
A wheel can look well positioned on a stationary car yet need more room when the suspension compresses or the steering turns. The complete setup must account for these movements, especially when combining wider wheels with lowering springs.
Combining Your Wheels with H&R Lowering Springs
H&R lowering springs give us an available suspension option to consider alongside your wheel package. There are two applications, selected according to the car's factory PASM suspension specification.
| Factory suspension | Equipment code | H&R part number | Listed lowering |
|---|---|---|---|
| PASM sports suspension | 1BV | 28628-1 | 20 mm |
| PASM standard suspension | 1BH | 28628-2 | 30 mm |
These are application-specific alternatives, not a free choice between two lowering heights. The correct set follows the factory suspension equipment on your car.
The supplied application information includes vehicles with the front axle lift system. This refers to vehicle compatibility; a lift system is not included in the spring kit.
When combining springs with custom wheels, we plan the ride height, offsets and tyre dimensions together. Your proposal can also include fitting and alignment requirements.
