Choosing new wheels for my CTT...

Two of my wheels can't be balanced due to run out and need to be replaced. They're 22x10 inch reproduction wheels and I'd like to buy 22x11 or 22x12 rear wheels and 22x10 front wheels of a higher quality.

I plan on blacking out a majority of the silver trim on my Cayenne, definitely the rear wing, roof rails, and the silver trim on the pillars, and I will leave the other trim for now. I'll either wrap those pieces in vinyl or Plasti-Dip them so I can go back to stock if I end up not liking the look. If I love it, I'll have them painted to match the body color.

I want to go with a largely blacked out theme with the highlight being the wheels with machined faces or with some sort of magnesium or silver wheel to add interest.

Here's my CTT:


Leading candidates are the 808 wheel from wheel dynamics:


Wheel dynamics GTS 22" concave:


Forgestar F14 Deep Concave:


TSW Nurburing machine faced:


Thanks a lot for the opinions. Please feel free to share pictures of your aftermarket wheels on your CTT because I'm open to ideas.

Wheels are a very personal choice. Some people like large diameters (I'm not one of them), some like black wheels, some like polished, etc. Choose the one you like and don't look back. All the wheel choices you posted are nice.

Skigod9 is infamous around these parts
I did the same thing with plasti dip it looks great and the flat black gives a nice contrast to the gloss black paint. Just a heads up you cant dip the pillars, the door opening and closing rips the plasti dip. But everywhere else holds up great even the front lower bumper to my surprise.

Don't Plastidip the silver side pillars. They wrap around inside the door and will get damaged from the door opening and closing. Had all mine wrapped and i dipped the door handles and the badging.

Fwiw, I'm thinking of selling these with good BFGs and pressure sensors.

They are OZ Boticelli forged 3 piece.

I prefer the ones you already have but would otherwise choose the GTSs.
