Those are good looking winter sets. makes my 19/20 base look a little boring.

What was the final price on those.. Please do not tell me what I paid for the base winters :-(

Thanks Richard and Preems.

Actually, it was less expensive than anything from Porsche

Its a "hybrid" forged wheel...so not for the track but wont make you cry if they take any damage on the mean winter streets up here.

Just changed out my summer wheels to a new set of 20/21's from Suncoast about 3 weeks ago. Strangely, I seem to have developed a slow leak in the rear right tire. About every 3rd day the signal comes on the TPMS that it is down -5 and sure enough, when I check it, it is deflated (it seems odd that it doesn't seem to go below that point, but maybe because I am catching it every 3-4 days or so).
Any reason I should be concerned taking it to a regular tire shop in the area to have them take a look? I am assuming that maybe it has a nail in it or something, but who knows. Either way, while I wouldn't want them to mess things up, I don't necessarily feel I need to take it to Porsche.

The right rear tire is the most common one to pick up a nail so I’d put my money on that. I’d take it to my indie without any hesitation but would not trust just any shop to have the ability to avoid damaging. 21” wheel ... definitely get it looked at ASAP before you end up with a quicker leak that ends up leaving you with a flat.

If there's no nail apparent you might most likely be leaking from the bead which is why it doesn't go below that.

Thanks for the input -- if the bead is the issue, would you think Suncoast would warranty the tire?

Beyond my pay grade alas. Let us know though as this happened to me a couple of times...(19" Porsche Cayenne rims on my V8 Touareg)

Thanks. I am super happy with the aesthetics and winter performance.911s on PA5s are impressive.
