Default Need help with wheels for Cayenne...

Hi Guys,

I need your help with wheels for Cayenne. The car color is dark silver (metor grey) with black interior. I am thinking 20" since this car is a present for my mom...

I am thinking about Gemballa wheels - but want also your input. I know we have some wheel-gurus here..

Attached are pics of the Gemballa wheel - the car is the same color. I know they have this wheel with darker inside.

I think maybe some dark inside with polished lip?

Thanks!

I know gemballa is good but for some reason they look like those cheap ASA wheels to me. Is there any other design you had in mind?

Those HRE's look pretty nice, would hate to see how much they cost though.

First of all, check this gallery

http://www.d2autosport.com/D2_2006/0...y_porsche.html
http://www.d2autosport.com/D2_2006/0...llery_suv.html

Gemballa wheels are nothing special.

Oh, and IMHO think about those wheels

http://www.vertiniwheels.com/images/...fashion.htm??/
http://www.vossenwheels.com/ (many to choose from)

those are good quality, relativly cheap one piece casted wheels.

http://www.reverelondon.com/cayenne.html - those are good, but only available in the UK, bit pricy though.

I also like
http://www.aiconawheels.com/
http://www.vellanowheels.com/collection.htm

when it comes to multi piece forged.
