Hello, I have a nice dilemma that's driving me crazy. I'm a lucky boy, picked up a brand new Cayman in Rhodium Silver on Friday (driving it out of the showroom was ace). It was a showroom model, not one I specced, but has all the toys you need.

I did the deal on the phone before travelling to the showroom and had wangled to get the fitted 19" Cayman S wheels swapped for 20" Carrera Classics, however they couldn't do it there and then, it'll be the end of the month. But.... when I saw the car I was surprised how gorgeous the 19" Cayman S wheels were, especially with the thick 'silver' spokes matching the paintwork and filling the arch nicely. I'm concerned the bigger Classics may dominate the car, or they could look amazing. But what a valuable option to add, and at no cost to me....

Just wondered if anyone had any views or similar dilemmas to resolve. At least I have a month to think about it! (the Carrera Classics will be coming from a demo car they have that's done a few hundred miles)

Thanks
Mark

Have you tried the Porsche configuration tool to compare the look?

IMO the 20" Classics will look better. I don't expect the performance will be enhanced either way

I agree, 20" may be hard to resist. I've been looking at the wheels and still can't decide. So clearly no decision would be a bad one.
Oh and all these threads where people ask for opinion are common surely because it's human nature. And indeed one reason people join forums is to get others' opinions. Not so odd really. All part of the fun.
