I have the 22''s and they ride smooth. The only thing is, if u hit a pothole forget about it. You will most likely bend your wheels. I've had many many sets of wheels before and never bent one until i owned this cayenne. The reason probably is because of the weight of the truck.

If u drive on ****ty roads then go with 20''s or 21''s.. Still will look nice.

Im riding on BF's 285-35-22. I don't feel the ride quality suffered any.
PS, the people who don't notice the car slowing down are the ones driving turbo's. The V6 guys will suffer very minor performance loss...

The honest answer is the 22's ride like ****. 20's will give you a much more comfortable ride. I have felt the difference and may go back to 20's -FYI I do not have the Air suspension.

Each time I go by the local dealer there is a different Cayenne with 22's in there that has a flat tire. My service advisor said they are constantly being towed in due to a bent wheel. If you live in an area like Chicago that has tons of potholes, be careful. For me, I'm sticking with 20's.

Did you notice any slow down or heavier steering with 22x10?

tons of potholes in montreal... hit all of 'em... never a bent rim..never a flat....
get the 285/35's and you should be fine... i haven't tried many types of tires and rims... but my combo never failed me once. i check pressure bi-weekly..and its always perfect.

Finally decided...
I'm glad that I waited until I get my lowering links done.
Ride is just perfect for me...I actually like the solid ride...stiffen little just right for me...I can tell the difference with my little 18" with sport mode...didn't try at comfort.

22" looks damn good and aggressive but as daily drive hmmm....
If I didn't lower it then I wouldn't mind go with 22" for sure.




20"




Anyone wants to sell 20" techno? before I change my mind...
