I think it might actually be ATP (never heard of it prior to this forum)... did some research and this is what I came up with::

--looks as if someone bought the ATP wheels and put new wheel caps on his wheels in the picture shown above, probaly someone who was a Gemballa wanna-be or somthing??

F1Drew, have you read the email I sent to you? I found it in http://www.essentialstyling.com/cayenne_wheels.htm
It said it is AT Crossspoke split rim. I bet they are different rims. TIRERACK has them. Check tirerack too. The pic posted by SANDOVAL is infact gemballa's wheel.
Btw, how did you see the gemballa marked in the center cap of the pic I posted, bcoz I tried zooming in and change the resolution, but still can't see it.

Not to be rude to gemballa or anyone. I think they are made by the same factory, probably gemballa just made their own center cap, and put it on. There are many company that does it. same wheel with different brand.

I am personal friends we the US distributor and have been looking at these wheels and center caps for almost two years. Also, once you have physically seen one you would know that's Uwe Gemballa's signature on that cap.

Okay here is AT Italia Wheel and Gemballa:





Almost identical!

P.S. I think 41 lbs is kinda heavy... Porsche 19" are ~28 lbs. Anyone know the weight of 22" Techarts?

Its amazing... i know exactly what your talking about TCayenne. For example:: OZ wheels makes the wheels for AMG, HAMANN!! among many others. Its crazy... the price difference... yet they are made by the same people!

Hard to say without looking into this further. As your aware, looks can be deceiving.

Called Tirerack and they told me the weight. Also, they are currently available in 2 offsets:

22X10 5-130 ET60 ATI PRESA $559.00
22X10 5-130 ET41 ATI PRESA $529.00

Gravity Cast Construction - NOT A TRUE MULTI PIECE WHEEL.

Are the ATP wheels offered in the same sizes and offsets as Gemballa? Is so, I would contact the ATP reseller and find out who makes the wheel. Also ask them to physically inspect them vs. Gemballa, (not just a picture) they may see something we don't. I would also have them both weighed.

Sam, Would be interesting to get weight specs. on the Techart, HRE, Cargraphic etc. as most of us are not just concerned with looks but also weight/performance. I would assume that because the HRE wheel is forged it would be one of the lightest and also most expensive.
