Cayman S Wheels Wanted



Hey Guys,





Are any of you planning on switching out your stock wheels for aftermarket or other Porsche wheels after you take delivery ? I will be looking for a second set of Cayman S wheels for track duty. Have tried to order second set from Porsche but they are currently not available.

Rick, do you change the wheels or have them done? In my brief look under the Cayman the other day it looked a bit difficult to jack up. Any tips?

Rick,


Ads have to be approved, there should have been a message about the ad awaiting approval, I see I have something in the queue if it is the ad I will go approve it.

Santa Fe,


When I raced I usually had some trackside support to do the dirty work. But when just doing track days or DE's, I usually do it myself. Get a little compressor and an impact wrench along with a small jack, and you can change all 4 by yourself in under 5 minutes. I looked under the car the other day, and the jacking points look well defined and should not pose any problems. Make sure your jack fits under the car so you don't have to drive the car onto a piece of wood, as that will slow down the process.

Ditto w/Rick. I'll have 3 sets of wheels: street, track & winter. Changing is no big deal although I'd say more like 30-40 min from start to finish, but some of that's my age. I use a low clearance, lightweight 'racing jack' w/a hockey puck on the saddle to protect the car. The entire side lifts from 1 jacking point. It's also a good opportunity to quickly check brake pad wear, etc.

If I purchse this Cayman that they will be getting in at my dealer (looks as if I will be getting it), it will have the 18" Standard wheel and I will be looking to sell these wheels as I will be changing them to Carrera classics if anyone is still interested.

I have all the tools but my jack is to large. Where did you get the racing jack Dan?
