Hey guys, I just bought an 05 cayenne S with these 21" bbs wheels.

I am going to lower the Cayenne soon. I want to go for the look of no gap. From my research looks like H&R springs are my best bet. However because I want as little gap as possible I am thinking of upgrading to a 22" wheels. I really like the look of these techart wheels. I am going for this look:

My question is.. Why are the 21" BBS I have on my car now so expensive? Whats so special about them? Personally I dont like the look to much. Also are there any other quick mods that arent too expensive you guys can think of? Thanks!!

The BBS wheels you have are the RXII. They are 21x10.5. They are of a 2 piece construction. Cast Aluminum Center - Cast and Spun rim section

BBS is in the wheel sector what Porsche is in the world of sports cars. Not cheap or the best, but built to last and perform.

From what Roller said... BBS is up there, cant beat it when it comes to quality....
just spend your money on lowering, bypass pipes or exhaust

I have a picture with it lowered from our member Mase, check it out..
he powder coated it satin

That looks sick!!! Maybe I will just keep my bbs's and have them painted black. Anyone have any idea how much that would cost? Also Mase's Cayenne is a turbo with air suspension so he was able to drop it that much. How would I go about getting a drop like that?? I stole this pic from Cognac:
