Hi MarcusJames
How about you buy the car as-is, then I give you my 20ins SD wheels, fitted with NEW tyres of your choice, plus some cash, in exchange for your 21's. I'll fit them on the car too ( providing you watch me do it - i have trolley jack, torque wrench etc)
Per my 2 adverts in sales and wants, (one in Sept), I'm selling my second set of 20's, ( with worn tyres) and want some 21's for springtime.

Photos in the advert & more available too

PM me..

Dealer has offered 21" Turbo wheels. However, he made a comment that they had come off a Cayenne. Does anyone know if these are interchangeable. I thought I had read they were a different offset etc.
Thanks

I too was under the impressions that Cayenne wheels were different, but not offset, different by way of stud/nut radius.

I would walk anyway from this one, shop around and in particular ring other dealers there will be one somewhere with an early build available.

Sounds very much like the dealer is trying to do a job on you. Is it a proper Porsche centre or a "specialist"?

It's a main dealer. Visiting tomorrow so will get him to confirm the origin of the wheels.
Thanks all.

Just tell them how it is. Trading from more valuable wheels to less valuable wheels needs to be reflected in the price or they can "do one" as there are plenty of other dealers who would be grateful for your business (and plenty of Porsche Approved Used Cars to choose from)

Follow on from Vans prior.

You can bet that the OPC will increase the sticker price of the Macan to reflect that it has Classics.

Btw
I am on my second Macan with Spyders, they are a sod to clean, but do look superb

Ask if you can be there to watch when they are putting the Cayenne wheels on to the Macan, that would be a good bit of entertainment.
