What air? The wheel takes a solid hunk of rubber for tire. Run flat and hard all the way.

I think I prefer this new design for teh Cayenne, and the former design for the 996, 997, et al. New wheel has a thicker spoke design.

I like them. They are a little heavy looking, but so were the 2004 Techarts which most seemed to find quite acceptable. I would like to see a picture mounted.

I had the Daytonas on my 2001 Turbo. They looked great with a 25 mm offset. These rims were killer.

This new design is more of the Giovanna look., which is nice. Techart is a little behind in selling that kind of look. I'm sure they'll have a great offset again.

Has anyone weighed the Hollow spokes? Is there a lighter wheel made? Some of the forged HRE's have to be close if not better. Is the TechArt forged?

Looks a lot like the KAHN Cayenne Wheel in 22" only not as good looking....................

Kahn wheels are available from JSCadavid@aol.com in the states.
