    Whats the biggest size of rims that will fit a Cayenne?

    I want to get rims for my cayenne s, but dont know what size to get. I want to get the biggest possible, yet I dont want it to effect the driving. What do you guys think? 22's, 23's, 24's?...

    If you don't want it to affect the driving, the largest wheel size yoiu should use is 20".

    I have 22" Kahn alloys on my Turbo and the handling is great. Just keep away from big potholes or they will dent. Looks fantastic though.

    In that case, I have no advice for you. I don't even understand this.

    My mother used to use a similar saying, to which I can clearly relate. I'm with you, GM. Still trying to justify to myself all the downsides of my 19"ers vs. the 18"s.

    maybe a hummer would be a better car for you.?!
    Cayenne's with 23' or even more are terrifying

    Right. I really wanted the 19's because I thought they were the most attractive wheel design available from Porsche for the Cayenne. I just couldn't justify it though. At least for the way I use my Cayenne, it would have been too much of a compromise, so I stayed with the 18's and ordered the turbo wheels. The standard 18" wheels are just plain ugly, at least for an SUV. They look like they might be more appropiate for a Buick Century. The 18" Turbo wheels are OK. I can live with them.

    Dude! And you thought the rest of us were being harsh about the Cayenne fire truck? I'm with you on the standard S wheels, though. But my favorites are the simpler 5-spoke designs. Were it not for the big PK brakes, mine would be shod the same as yours.
