Default 22 inch wheels....Pictures ?

Anyone have a CTT '04-07 that has 22 inch wheels ?

I am getting delivery of a Blk / Blk 2004 CTT with 82k miles in a few days and want to put 22 on it and would love some input.

I like an aggressive look....so

Wheels: I am looking at 22x10...maybe 22x10.5's

Tires: I think I've narrowed it down to
295x30x22
285x35x22

My goal is for a setup (wheels and tires) like this image. I don't want a bulging tire and I don't want the rim sticking out....which leads me back to the image below, its just 'right' ....

Actually a best guess on those wheels and tires would be very helpful.

I have rinspeed, and I really like them. Previously I had OEM 21 inch but to me it looks lot better with these. Tires are 295/30.

Love it ! Exactly what I was looking for.

Did you need spacers to achieve that look ? If so, what size ?

Also....I know there are similar Rinspeed 'knock-offs'...any insight on those ? I assume they are heavier but look the same

Thank you....looks like another perfect setup.
Non Staggered ?

What tires sizes are those ? Spacers ?

Thanks

There is no spacers. I don't remember what ET those wheels have, but I can look if you want.

On a related note to this thread, what wheel size (22x10 or 22x10.5) did you guys go with? I am looking for new wheels for the spring and wanted to make sure I ordered the right specs for my 958.

This guy did a writeup on your question....not sure its the bible, but it seems to fit with what I've been reading. My problem is I'm visual and want to SEE IT to make sure it looks right ! lol

Yeah I saw that thread too. From what I gathered from that thread was:

The 265 is ok on 9" wheels, the 285/35 is ok on 9.5" and the 285/30 and the 295/30 need 10" wheels. The 315/30 is a beast and needs 10.5" wheel.
But when I check Tire Rack on a 295 tire (i.e. Michelin 4x4 Diamaris), they recommend a 10.5" width. Granted they also say it will fit on a rim 10"-11".

10.5 certainly limits your options even further

I like these....Ruger Mesh on 22x10.5's
Scorpion wheels....but can't make out the size...guess is 295x30x22, could be 305's on back, but to my knowledge (thus far) 305 will rub 'slighty' on the front.
I like the black look...but my wife does not....grrr

might as well deposit some more of my research here so its all together

Thread on 22's success stories along with tire size discussion and durametric lowering

Then again....rather then buying the durametric, some guys have just gone to a Porsche friendly Indy and asked them to do it for 1 hour or so cost of labor.

Still looking for pics of your 22's with tire specs !!!

While not Cayenne specific, this thread discusses Staggered tire sizes (not to be confused with staggered wheel widths) are a NO NO for AWD vehicles.

http://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/sh...-Wheels-on-AWD

Logical information and would tend to make sense that it could (in the long run) have adverse affects on your transmission

SHOW ME YOUR WHEELS !
Would be helpful to include:
Wheel size
Tire size and
Spacers if used


Quick Reply: 22 inch wheels....Pictures ?
