Just to clarify the wheel paint was £900 for all 4 wheels which I thought was better than £5k for new ones and they're painted to Porsche standards. The tyres and 4 wheel alignment were extra obviously. He was never full happy with Pirellis and glad to be on Michelins. I swopped from Continentals to Michelin on my Turbo and the difference in handling is like comparing chalk to cheese. I noticed that Silverstone had a new Macan in the showroom shod in Michelins N2 as mine are, so maybe they're deviating from all Pirellis at last.

They went back to Porsche in Germany to be painted to Porsche standards then wow £900 sounds reasonable !
Oh no they just went to a local paint shop his dealer knows and overcharged massively and probably not even done properly by an actual alloy wheel specialist !
