Exclamation Wheels

Hey guys I know there has been alot of talk about wheels all over the place. However I have not heard anyone talk about these wheels-- the Champion Motorsport RG-24 Monolite wheel (22"). I am seriously thinking about purchasing a set of these because they look like the BBS, but have a chrome lip, and probaly (hopefully) arent as pricey as the BBS. Anyways please let me know what you all think! Also, if you have any prices that would be helpful! Thanks alot people

PS: You can find two pictures of a cayenne turbo at this site, it will be the last two pictures on the bottom (and one you can enlarge of the wheel only on the right hand side)!

One thing I'm worried about is keeping them clean-- right now I have the 19's and I dont even bother trying to keep up with them in terms of keeping them clean. Any opinions on wether it would be difficult to keep these wheels clean or what. Price??

Ryan, Because of the soft brake pad compound used on the Cayenne there will always be excessive brake dust on your wheels. I don't imagine it will be easier or more difficult keeping the Champion wheels clean.

Put some RejeX on your wheels, and the brake dust can be sprayed off with a hose.

The Gemballa 22*10 retails for $1,321.00 per. But I am sure you can do some negotiating and get the price down a little bit.

TCM: Gemballa offers 2 different wheels, I am sure that the multi spoke with the lip is more expensive than that, that price can be for the 5 spokes racing wheels.

What do you guys think about the Antera 341 wheels?
Go to www.antera.com and you will find it... it shows a cayenne with them! Tell me what you think about those

First, Champions do not have a chrome lip - they are brushed. Second, Champions are some of the most pricey wheels out there. I'm sure they're more expensive then BBS (I think the BBS are 21"). I had two sets of Champions on my TT Cab and because they are NOT chrome lips, the are extremely easy to take care of. The silver painted centers also helps. I've seen these wheels at Champion in Pompano, FL and they are beautiful.

Yeah their 22" wheels for the cayenne retail for $7200 =O. But if I can get a good enough deal on them I may just work my butt off even harder to get them.

PS:: what do you guys think about those antera wheels for the cayenne on their site!?

I don't like the Antera either, why don't you get the Techart one? those on Kevin's ride looks awesome
