I like them, and the color goes really well on your P!G (IMHO - flat black is SO overdone - some Japanese pseudo performance - really family cars - are coming from the factory with them.)

Great choice. I like them a lot, especially how the silver wheel complements the silver trim.

Agreed. The satin aluminum finish is almost identical to that of the Cayenne's body trim. The offsets look spot on as everything is neatly tucked inside the fenders and the overall concave design of the rim really sets it apart from other aftermarket wheels.

Any plans for a logo'd center cap?

Thank you everyone for the kind words.

I'm liking it more and more each time I see it. Looks a lot classier and frankly more luxurious than darker wheels.

Yeah, these wheels don't fit Porsche center caps, and they won't make them since the crest is intellectual property, but they're going to make me some with the crest indention so I can get some other caps, remove the crest, and affix it to the new caps. These were supposed to come with the wheels but they just forgot.

Is the car lower than stock? Looks awesome! I am shopping for a GTS or Turbo - hard to find anything decent, no matter the price, in Houston right now.

It's not lowered, but it is in loading mode in the photo.
