Any pics of your car OCheadhunter? I'm looking to upgrade my wheels to the oem 21" and I have the sport design kit as well so wanted to get an idea of how the truck looks. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the picture. Truck looks great! Is it lowered on after-market springs? And I'm assuming that you ended up getting the wheels from Sunset Porsche?

Thanks. I got a deal on wheels and tires from a dealer online...takeoffs for $3500. No springs though, that's stock height.

Just a note, I had 20" Champions (lightweight) before. While I like the look of the new 21"s much better, they noticeably affect acceleration and breaking. That said, it's a daily driver, so it doesn't matter. If you have the turbo, you probably won't notice.

OC, I am planning to purchase 21" OEM's sports you purchased on-line.

Can you give me the name on the dealer or website you purchased ?

Thank-you, Coach 11

I got them from Rietzl Porsche www.rietzl.com. Mine were take-offs. Watch Ebay or check with dealers or wheel shops.

Good info to know, mlcdesign!

I know the 21" Cayenne Sport fits on a '06 CTTS because I was able to try one on the front.

Cope, What did you think of the look? Does require wheel arch extensions?



Tnx, Coach 11

I liked it, but I didn't love it. I also tried a 20" Sport Techno that was painted like the titanium edition 19's. My Cayenne's titanium and the Sport Techno looked great on that color vehicle.

The 21"s that I have fit flush with the rear wheel fenders, but the fronts stick out slighty (~1/2" or so) in the front. May look a bit better with extensions? IMO, I like the driving feel of the 19" or 20" wheels, but the 21"s fill out that big wheel well better.

My vehicle has Tequipment wheel extensions and a lowering module. I don't recall how much the 21" stuck out. I only had it on the car for a few minutes.
