Porsche wheels and brakes upgrades for 911, Turbo & GT models

At Micarja Racing we develop Porsche wheels and brakes packages that improve steering precision, braking consistency and high-speed stability. The objective is not “bigger parts” — it is a coherent system: correct fitment, predictable pedal feel and repeatable performance under heat.

Whether your use case is fast road, Autobahn, or track days, wheels, tyres, braking hardware and setup must work together with Porsche ABS/PSM logic. That is how an upgrade stays refined (OEM+) while delivering real confidence when pushed.

Why it matters

Precision in every corner, repeatability at speed

Steering & tyre behaviour

Wheel weight, width and offset influence steering feedback, tramlining and tyre contact patch behaviour. The right spec improves response without creating nervousness or unwanted rubbing.

Braking balance

A strong brake setup is more than bite. We target predictable deceleration that works with ABS/PSM, so the car stays stable under threshold braking and mid-corner corrections.

Heat & durability

Sustained load generates heat fast. Rotor mass, pad compound, fluid boiling point and cooling must be aligned so performance remains consistent run after run.

Wheels

Wheel upgrades with correct fitment and clearance

A wheel upgrade is successful when it improves response without compromising geometry, clearance or drivability. We work from your chassis, tyre target and usage (road / Autobahn / track) and define a spec that remains stable: width, offset (ET), centre bore, bolt pattern/centrelock and brake caliper clearance.

Forged wheels are often the preferred choice because they can reduce unsprung and rotating mass while maintaining strength. That supports acceleration response, braking feel and suspension control. When needed, we also advise on tyre load rating, speed rating and sidewall behaviour to match your driving style.

Sizing & offsets

  • Clearance strategy (suspension, liners, calipers)
  • Correct ET for stability and predictable steering
  • Tyre sizing matched to your chassis setup

Materials & weight

  • Forged wheel sets (strength-to-weight)
  • Reduced rotating mass where feasible
  • Durable finishes for real road use

TPMS & integration

  • Sensor integration where applicable
  • Valve hardware and sealing
  • OEM+ behaviour, no warning lights

Brakes

Brake upgrades focused on heat management and pedal confidence

Brake fade is typically a temperature story. We address the full chain: rotor mass and design, pad compound, fluid specification, lines, and (when relevant) airflow and cooling strategy. The result is consistent bite and a pedal that stays firm and predictable.

We also keep braking balance in mind. A “too aggressive” setup can upset stability and confuse driver feedback. Our goal is a strong, controllable brake package that complements your tyre grip and suspension behaviour.

Rotors & pads

  • Street / fast-road / track pad selection
  • Rotor spec matched to heat and usage
  • Noise, dust and cold bite expectations

Fluid & lines

  • High-temp fluid strategy (boiling point)
  • Lines and service intervals
  • Pedal consistency under repeated load

Calipers & big brake

  • Build-dependent big brake solutions
  • Clearance check with wheel choice
  • OEM+ integration and reliability

OEM+ guidance

OEM+ Porsche wheels and brakes upgrades for 911 platforms

Upgrading wheels and brakes on a Porsche improves feedback, stability and braking confidence — but only when specified correctly. Wheel sizing must preserve clearance and geometry, while brake choices must maintain predictable ABS/PSM behaviour and consistent pedal feel. That is why we treat wheels, tyres and brakes as one system rather than separate parts.

For high-load driving, thermal stability matters most. Rotor mass, pad compound and fluid specification define how long the brakes stay consistent. At the same time, wheel weight and tyre behaviour affect how the suspension can control the car over bumps and under braking. A coherent package creates confidence: stable braking, clear feedback and predictable corner entry.

FAQ

Porsche wheels and brakes FAQ

Do forged wheels make a noticeable difference?
Often, yes. Lower rotating mass can improve steering response and suspension control, while maintaining strength under load.
Which brake pads should I choose for fast road or track days?
Pad choice depends on heat range and usage. Some track compounds need temperature to work properly and can be noisy or less effective when cold.
Will bigger brakes always stop better?
Not automatically. Brake performance is a system: tyres, pad compound, rotor mass, cooling and balance matter as much as caliper size.
Can you help with clearance and fitment on 991 and 992?
Yes. We plan offsets, widths and caliper clearance so the setup remains OEM+ and avoids rubbing or geometry issues.
Do you support international clients?
Yes. We advise on build scope and practical planning for worldwide projects.

Porsche wheels and brakes upgrades: fitment, balance and cooling

A correct package considers offset/clearance, tyre behavior, brake bias and cooling. That’s how wheels and brakes stay predictable under load.
