Thumbs up Just saw these for the first time

I was pretty set on getting 20" Techarts until I foolishly looked at wheels online.



I think they look pretty good and must be pretty light and durable. Does anyone have them or know what they cost? I still wish that the 20" Champion wheels were a bit wider...

Very NICE!!!! But reason I went with TechArts is that as a daily driver, clean wheels are important to me. With these and others with many spokes, cleaning becomes too frequent. TechArts, all you need is a small Car Duster and you are done in 1 minute per wheel.

wow... another thing confuses me now!! do they make it in 22"?

I agree with Fred, those wheels are just hard to keep them clean! and I already have the 22" Hartge on my X5 (many spokes too)...

Should I go with these wheels?

I saw a Cayenne TT at Champion in December with a set of these wheels Monolite wheels. The Cayenne looked absolutely phenominal! BTW, they only come in 22" size.

I was refering to the smaller 20" wheels that are 9" wide. the Techart 20's are 10" wide - better look and I am guessing more traction. I still can't decide what wheels to get. Does anyone know how much the Champion 20's and 22's are? Also how much are the Gemballas? Don't think those will be healthy for my wallet...

Call Justin at Brandywine Porsche - 610-886-1000. He has a set of both the 20" (5 spokes) and the 22" pictured above incoming. I bought the Monolites for my TT Cab from him and I've found him to have the best prices.

glad to know the wheels look good. I think the Techarts look pretty damn good, but I think these wheels may look better. Called Brandywine a couple of days ago and they quoted me $7900 as their most competitive pricing for the 22" Speedlines. Whew!! not about to get these wheels anytime soon. Also has anyone been able to compare the ride quality between the 20" and 22" w/ air suspension. I had the 20" Sport Technos which I thought were a bit harsher than the 18" S wheels so I am guessing even with the air the 22"'s will be a hayride. Anyways I am hoping to get some wheels before the winter is gone so I can be ready for the first day of good weather. Anyone that finds good deals on good looking wheels let us all know!!
