I always likes the original Classic wheels that were available for the Macan, problem for me was they were only available in 21”.

So 20” Classics, painted to match body colour with the accent around the rim as per the image.

Do I recall that Sport Classics could be had in 19” or 20” diameter, possibly with winter tyres? 🤔

(Maybe available post-purchase, but not able to be specced on a new car order.)

Rhodium Cayman 981 with Platinum Satin Carrera S wheels (no diamond cut) - owned 8yrs - ideal colour. Hides the dirt.

Previously BMW X1 - black and diamond cut. one wheel replaced in 3yr warranty due to corrosion. All wheels badly corroded after 7yrs.

Never, ever use any wheel cleaner, just Autoglym car shampoo.
The standard wheels on a Macan T are Dark Titanium but they look so bland and plain.
I think the dark tit rims on the T look great, shame they are not available on the S.

I generally prefer Titanium Grey to plain black wheels. :)

Gentian Blue and I have the Satin Platinum GT Design alloys, which I wouldn't change, unless it was to make them a gloss finish instead of satin - I like the design and colour but am slightly less convinced by the matte finish.

Years ago I had a BMW M135i with gloss silver-grey alloys and really liked the finish.
