The Kahn Design Type 11 Forged Wheel brings a forged monoblock with contemporary multi-spoke design to the Porsche 911/991 (2011–2019), engineered in-house at Kahn Design's Bradford headquarters in a signature Silver / Satin Black finish. Every Type 11 begins as a solid billet of high-grade aluminium, shaped through advanced closed-die forging to deliver unmatched structural integrity at minimum weight — an advantage that is impossible to replicate with cast manufacturing processes.
Kahn Design produces all wheels to order, meaning a different diameter, width, or offset is always achievable. Contact our team at [email protected] or via WhatsApp at +44 7488 818747 to discuss your exact specification. We also offer an AI Wheel Design Service if you want a custom spoke pattern or finish concept designed before production begins.
The Type 11 offers 991-generation 911 owners a contemporary forged monoblock design that departs from the motorsport heritage references of the GTR and Cup 1 designs. The Type 11's multi-spoke geometry is clean and proportional — an approach that allows the 911's body design to remain the primary visual statement whilst the wheel provides a premium material upgrade in forged aluminium. Available in Silver and Satin Black, the Type 11 suits a wide range of 911/991 colour combinations and body specifications, from standard Carrera models to the wide-body 4S and Targa variants.
Manufactured through one-piece forged monoblock construction, shaped from a single solid billet of high-grade aluminium, the Type 11 achieves structural integrity that cast wheels cannot match at equivalent weight. The forging process aligns the aluminium grain structure, producing a wheel that is both stiffer and more resilient under cornering loads — a meaningful advantage for a vehicle with the performance and engineering standards of the Porsche 911/991.
The Porsche 911/991 (2011–2019) represents engineering at the highest level. Every system — powertrain, suspension, brakes — is developed to perform with precision. Fitting cast alloy wheels to a vehicle of this standard introduces a compromise that forged wheels eliminate: excess unsprung mass that forces the suspension to manage additional rotational inertia. Kahn Design's forged monoblock process reduces wheel mass by 20–30% compared to equivalent cast alloy alternatives, allowing the Porsche 911/991's suspension to work as its engineers intended.
Beyond the dynamic argument, forged aluminium's grain structure makes the wheel substantially more resistant to kerb impact damage and fatigue cracking under repeated high-load cycles — both relevant concerns for vehicles regularly operated near the limits of their performance envelope.
The Type 11 is engineered specifically for the Porsche 911/991 (2011–2019) with 5×130 bolt pattern. This configuration is shared across a range of premium vehicles:
While the standard Type 11 for the Porsche 911/991 is supplied in 5×130 configuration, Kahn Design's bespoke build-to-order process allows adaptation to alternative bolt patterns including 5×120, 5×112, 5×130, 5×108 and others. Contact [email protected] for a custom specification quote.

To order the Kahn Design Type 11 for your Porsche 911/991, contact Hodoor World directly:
Are the Type 11 wheels direct-fit for the Porsche 911/991?
Yes. The Type 11 is engineered to the 5×130 fitment specification of the Porsche 911/991 (2011–2019). Standard fitment is direct, with offset calculated to maintain OEM clearances. For vehicles with aftermarket suspension modifications, contact Hodoor World to discuss offset requirements.
What finish options are available for the Type 11?
The standard finish is Silver / Satin Black. Kahn Design's build-to-order process allows alternative colourways including custom painted, powder-coated and bespoke diamond-cut configurations — contact Hodoor World to discuss a bespoke specification.
Can the Type 11 be ordered in sizes larger than 24"?
The standard range covers 13"–24". For fitments beyond 24", contact Hodoor World — Kahn Design's build-to-order process can accommodate custom diameter requests subject to vehicle clearance assessment.
How much lighter are forged wheels compared to cast alloy?
Forged aluminium wheels are typically 20–30% lighter than equivalent cast alloy wheels. For the Porsche 911/991, reducing unsprung weight improves steering response, ride quality and overall dynamic performance.
Are Kahn Design forged wheels road legal in the UK and EU?
Yes. All Kahn Design forged wheels comply with applicable UK and EU standards. Documentation can be provided upon request for registration or insurance purposes.
What is the typical lead time for Kahn Design forged wheels?
All Kahn Design wheels are produced to order. Standard lead time is approximately 4–8 weeks from confirmed order, depending on finish and specification. Custom colours or non-standard diameters may extend this timeline.
Do Kahn Design forged wheels come with a warranty?
Yes. All Kahn Design forged alloy wheels are supplied with the manufacturer's warranty covering structural integrity and finish quality under normal road use. Warranty does not cover kerb damage, chemical abrasion from incorrect cleaning products or damage from racing or off-road use.
How do I care for silver / satin black forged wheels?
Use a pH-neutral wheel cleaner and soft brush — avoid acid-based cleaners. Rinse thoroughly after exposure to road salt. Inspect periodically for kerb damage and address any chips promptly to prevent corrosion.
Kahn Design Type 11 wheels are finished to an exacting standard and require straightforward care. Use only pH-neutral, alloy-safe wheel cleaners applied with a soft-bristle brush. Avoid automatic car washes with harsh brushes. After winter driving, rinse wheels thoroughly to remove road salt, paying attention to spoke recesses and rim edges. Apply a protective wax or sealant periodically for additional defence against environmental contamination.
