21inch Black Sport Classic pics?
My dealer just offered me a great deal on a set of black 21 inch Sport Classics. Does anyone have a pic of them on a black macan that they could post please? Thanks!

Thanks Loes! I’m 57 next week. When I showed my wife the pic she asked if I was having a mid-life crisis! She thinks old guys like me should have Turbos. My 19 year old son thinks they look “sick all murdered out”. Decisions, decisions!

I think they look great in black and also Agate but I’ve seen posts from other Macan owners trading them for the 20s because of how harsh the ride is. You might want to get a ride in a vehicle with them if possible or at least ask around a bit if you haven’t already.

When I still had my 958 CTT, I had a Macan GTS loaner for a month equipped with the 21” Sport Classics. The ride quality was perfectly acceptable even in Sport mode. Just a slight bit stiffer in the various modes than my current Macan GTS with 20”, but not objectionable at all (IMO).

Thanks. I had a 2015 Macan S with 21 inch Turbos and thought the ride was just fine. I’m sure 20’s are a little better, but I prefer the 21 designs.

Age shouldn't dictate your tastes. You like what you like. Also, it depends on who cleans the car. The sport classics are a lot easier to clean. I personally think the Turbos work best on white and brightwork window surrounds. My favorite are the platinum satin Sport Classics.

I hear you, but I think "most", not all, guys in my age bracket prefer bright wheels over black. I definitely think that wheels can make or break a car. I remember an old-timer telling me that "wheels are to a car what eyes are to a woman". I immediately understood what he meant.

I have 20's and run Conti Sport Contact 6 tires at 36/39. It will hop if I hit some bumps on the road. Keep in mind, I usually drive it lowered 10mm (AS/PASM) and on the firmest suspension setting. To compensate for that, I backed off one level on the suspension setting to 'keep it on the ground'. I would imagine if I had 21's, it would hop a lot more.
