Panamera The 4-dour coupe by Porsche

Is this really a reasonable price for 20"s with tires?

I am quite surprized that these are selling for 5.5k (starting bid?)

I have been looking around for a 20" set for my winter wheels...but...these are so very expensive

Well, if it included the tires, I'd tell you that it was a good deal. As wheels only, it's still a very decent price as I don't think you could get the TurboII wheels for that anywhere else.

Having said that, check with Wheel Enhancement first.

That is way to high. I bought a set with tires from Wheels Boutique for about $3300 shipped. They were great to deal with. Here is the link for the post where I found them.

I have been looking at ebay for some 19s with all-seasons and have noticed all the Panamera wheelsets are running a little high. Even the 20s. Just have to wait a little longer I guess. Some sponser on this board had some 20s going for 3500 a while back, now that is reasonable!

I am really more interested in the 20" RS Spyder spoke......I think I saw a set for sale a while back for about 2,500 or so without tires and tpms but it was gone before I was able to pull the plug...

Exactly, 5K seems a bit too much, I mean retail is ridiculous but still....I bought OEM Stock M6 rims brand new take offs for 3K and the X6M rims for 4K ....I also once bought 997 turbo 19" with brand new tires for 3K...so I dont know why these Pana wheels are so high, understood they are 20s but still....I would expect to see a set for around 4K?

Yes. They were great to deal with. You should give them a call, as they get take offs regularly.

I just noticed you said for your winter wheels! Which tires and what size are you looking to fit on these things? I haven't seen a size for tires for my 20s!?!?

Thats pretty expensive if you ask me, considering you can get some aftermarket 20's forged for not much more with tires.
