I'm considering buying another set of wheels for my winter tires now that we live in the mountains. The all-seasons were "okay" for Indiana winters, but not here. I see that a fellow rennlister is selling a set of OEM 18" wheels from a 2008 Cayenne. I would assume they are the same offset as those used on a 2004 Cayenne, but I'm not sure. I've asked him to provide me with the offset.
Is there any reason that these wheels wouldn't fit? I can't imagine that the offset changed, but I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated.

Actually I also want to know whether a 04 wheel can fit 08 model.
BTW, where did you see people sell 08 wheels? thanks.

I ended up finding a set of 18" wheels that were taken off of a Cayenne S when it was new because the buyer wanted a larger wheel. They were for sale at my local dealer and they are in perfect "as new" condition. I'm not sure what this wheel is called, but it's an OEM wheel offered on the first generation Cayenne S made by BBS. I think they will be perfect for my winter tires. I picked up the set for $500. I've also ordered center caps with colored crests and a new set of Pirelli Scorpion Ice + Snow tires. That should make it a little easier to get up the hill this ski season!
