So the weather finally got a bit warmer and I got a chance to wash her and snap some pics of my new wheels. 23" GTS reps with 315/25/23 continental UHP. She's also lowered with Eibach springs and I threw 7mm spacers on the back to even it out. I think it looks great and it actually rides quite well. It's firm but I like it and it handles amazing. I know a lot of you are anti-big wheel but I like em. What do you guys think?

 

Not bad, but I am in the too big wheel camp. Overall, clean setup though...

 

Looks good, too big for me but clean looking. I see some LED's on the front end. Did you wire those yourself or did you have someone do them?

 

I am not into bigger wheels:I still am unsure about going from 20"spyders to 21"HREs,so to me 23" is a bit too much...
However,the wheels look pretty sharp on your pepper
Great install job,they seem to fit right in and give your ride character

 

Loooks awesome congrats and I like those tails !

 

Thanks guys...I know the big wheels are not everyone's thing but I'm used to stiff rides from my other rides. This one rides better and handles way better than when I had my stock wheels on. I'm blessed to be living in an area with great roads so potholes are not a huge worry.
The LED's up front were wired by myself. I just wired them to my city lights In the headlight so they are on all the time the car is on. The are mounted with just 2-way 3m heavy duty tape which has held up very well (they've been there for a year). The lights look better in person than in pics. The tails are LED too from eBay...I love them. I had to get a new tail lamp anyways as 1 was cracked so I got these...we'll see how long before a bulb burns out.

 

Your car looks awesome man! i just got some 22" gunmetal rinspeeds on my CS and i want to lower it on the eibachs also. How is the ride and how much did it lower your car after the springs settled?

 

How are the REAR LED lights holding up......maybe wanting to add to my xmas list.

 

Nice Cayenne, I have the OEM GTS wheels on my 03. I also have the taillights, but it Black/Smoke. Look great! I have had them for over a year now, no issues

 

cool so the LEDs are not fading out after some decent usage.......good to know.

I actually noticed its hard to find some in the 300's range.......looking upwards of 500 hundred......maybe they stopped making as many for 955's with the new models.

 

Looks great!

 

I think OEM GTS wheel arch moldings (painted to match) would finish off that look perfectly - and I think it would help make those monster wheels/spacers look like they belong a bit better. Other than that I really like the look. In my neck o' the woods I'd be too worried about potholes with such low profile tires, but those wheels sure do look beefy!

 

Looks great!

 

Fantastic!

 

Imagine just a little bit more sidewall. Perfection!
