Default Winter Rims and Tires Edmonton Alberta

Hi everyone, we recently purchased a 2019 base Cayenne and love it. Headed to the dealership today to get a quote on winter rims and tires, they are quoting me on the lower end around 6500 for 20's. A few questions;

1. Are most people keeping the staggered rims on their Cayenne's?
2. We currently have 21's and were thinking of dropping the rim size to 20's, or would you recommend 19's?
3. Has anyone used ebay for Rims and just shipped them to Canada?

As I am finding it hard to secure anything, even to show the group. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check out tirerack.com see what they recommend for your vehicle.

Porsche keeps a list of "approved" tire sizes:

Many AWD systems can be very sensitive to tire sizes. On a vehicle still in warranty, I wouldn't put non-approved sizes on.

I used to exclusively use Tire Rack but with the shipping/brokerage fees they now charge, in conjunction with the exchange rate, i now use 1010 tires. I think they offer free shipping on tire and wheel packages.

i'd go with 19" wheels on a base Cayenne and forego a staggered set up.
