Default Best AftMarket Wheels ?

As owner of CTT '04, I currently have 20' Design alloys installed.
I'm looking for best AftMarket 22' wheels. Any suggestions ?

There are not a great deal of options for "quality" wheels. As mentioned above Techarts seem to be a very common choice. They look o.k. to me but not great. They are a flat faced wheel and on a Porsche I prefer something with a lip. They just look plain to me. BBS makes a nice 21" wheel, Cargraphics look awesome and are my favorite looking wheel but they are big $$. Champion makes some really nice looking wheels as well as Gemballa.
I would make sure you buy something tested and proven for an SUV. Remember the Cayenne is a very heavy vehicle. Do a search and you will find some pictures posted here. Good luck.

I saw a set of 22inch TechArts on a Cayenne Turbo recently at a dealer. The rims looked nice from far away on this truck but as yo ucame closer yo ucould see the curb and pothole beating they got!! Insane...the guy had them for several months and now I would not pay $100 for them.
I'm no longer going to look at 22inch wheels. As soon as Spring arrives and potholes are fixed I'm going to get a set of 20inch Techno's from Porsche.. For about 3k + tires that is just enough for me.

Arling, agreed..My dealer will match the price of the best deal I found out there. $750 + tax. What tire do you have? Can you post some pics?

yep! Just confirms how awesome these wheels looks! Sweet!!...hey you need to get the clear markers...I finally got them done and they look wonderful!
Rims, rails like yours and the stainless steel skid plate are next, fabspeed bypass and the BMC filters as well. What I think looks nice are rocker guards...I think after all of these mods I'll be set for a while.

another vote for the techarts or RUF,

RUF is a bit heavy but look awesome

get Techarts in whatever colour your car exterior is, looks GREAT

I have posted a set of OZ wheels in the classifieds.

These are 22" OZ Canyon wheels with Continental 295/30 ZR22 XL (extra load).
Brand new, were never installed on a car and come with the OZ center caps.
These wheels will fit any Cayenne V6, S or Turbo.

Gert,

Why are you selling the O.Z.'s? These are the rims that I was thinking of buying for my Cayenne S, but in the 20" size. Are you not happy with them, or just trying for a different look?
