Cayman R Wheels??

Need opinions....

Cayman R is coming with the Boxster Spyder wheel of course and I'll probably change it out most likely. What is everyone's thoughts?

I'm thinking:

19" Victor Equipment Innsbruck's (black)

or

Stock wheels 19" Boxster Spyder wheels (powder coat black)

thoughts?!

Or you can go aftermarket and get something from our range? These would look great on a Cayman in that size!





Or something similar in black, as you expressed you wanted darker colors here. Matte black, gunmetal or titanium graphite will work. No doubt.

I have a Carrera White CR with the Spyder wheels in black from the factory. Have to tell you I literally have people rolling down their windows and commenting to me about how great the car looks and the wheels are almost always cited. On mine........I put on the silver crest caps and I have the brushed titanium hood crest. It makes for a nice combination. The silver on black contrasts nicely against the red calipers and silver rotors.

I'd keep the Spyder wheels - they are one of the lightest Porsche makes.

For track use, I'd go with an 18" wheel to give you more tire choices.

When talking about how light they are, what's the figure on them?

That's what I personally and our company wants to know. Since we are sure we can offer quality aftermarket options for customers that want to go that way

I think you really can't go wrong with the Stock 19" wheels for the Boxster Spyder powder coated black. I do have to say though it would be a hard decision. All of those D2 Forged wheels are amazing looking !!

Thanks for the kind words. Cool thing with the Boxster is that we can really go low in terms of weight for the lbs savvy people!
