Rims/Tire combo for Cayman S?
-
What do you offer? I am looking for a sleek gunmetal rim style setup, from what I researched there are several brands. But I am definately looking for quality.
I can swing by the shop as planned, but I was just looking for some recommendations off the swing here.

With that car you are going to want to look at light wheels. the other thing is you need something strong.

Take a look at the OZ Alleggerita HLT We can do staggered up to 18x10 in the rear. this still keeps the wheel weight around 20lbs. the fronts you can go up to 18x8.5, those are around 19lbs.

If you are looking for 20" staggered you can go with the O.Z. Ultraleggera HLT But you will be getting into a heavier rim. some where in the 25lb area.
The reason I start off with the O.Z. wheels is they are light and strong, and reasonably priced. Not as strong as forged but half the cost. If you want to look at something stronger like iforge, Volk, HRE, etc. LEt us know.
For tires I would recommend the Yokohama Advan Sports.
235 front
265 rearGood tire for the balance of the car. Also this tire will not kill you if you get caught in the rain.
Stop in and we can talk about any setup you like.
Shane or Jason

I will stop by, price is not the concern moreso as what is going to ride better, and last longer and most importantly look the nicest

off first glance I like the second choices better. But I will definately have to look at a lot more before I make a decision. I will swing by on Saturday for sure. My name is Sean, so I will ask for either Jason or Shane correct?

I'm with Jim. OZ's are sweet for the price, but if you want ultraballer, hit Iforged.
Are Japanese wheels not considered cool on Euro Cars?
^btw this is a serious questionYou'll see a few people with Volks, but the vast majority want a big lip and a baller wheel = I-Forged or HRE's
