I wasn't a particular fan of the RS Spyders in 20" form. They switched to a 21" version of the same for the facelifted Macan, as below (not bad, but very much a GTS wheel and we're not getting a GTS), and the current RS Spyders (which are the only type available now) are the bottom.

Same, I like the finish on the second ones but not enough for an extra £600.

Polished 20"s, standard design on the Macan S (£387) - these are the same basic alloys as on the T but in a different finish:

I’ve just seen what looked to be an identical car to this on the road and I’m going to stick with this as my choice, looked good.

This thread has been really helpful. I started this morning preferring no.2, gradually started to prefer no.3 and now prefer no.4. Good job I have nearly 3 weeks to decide :lol:

Ronal only ever did the teddy alloys in 14" AFAIK.

They need to do an update as twennies or similar so we can get them back on some current stuff.

20” and the normal silver finish.

21s make it look like a roller skate.

Is Daven your transitioning name, Dave?

The 20”s aren’t available in normal silver. Ridiculous isn’t it. I think normal silver is particularly good on a black car.

2nd pic looks best to me.. maybe not £921 better though.

3rd pic looks like a Cayenne wheel? And I hate the last pic..

These, by a long way.

No. 4 are the worst.
Noticed there were two more pages of responses :D
But I agree with Duncs

She has excellent taste… in wheels at least! 😉

Separate topic, but caused by perusing Porsche.com - Would I be banned from the website if I bought a Cayenne coupe? 😂

I don’t mind the Cayenne Coupe but I’d have an Audi Q8 in preference.
