I've seen Cayman with 20" wheels before up close and personal. It just seems a bit too much. Even with the 20's in the car, it still has the stance of an SUV. You could fit your closed fist between the top of the tire and wheel arch. IMO, the cayman is begging for a lowering kit.

I agree with you on that. The 20's look awesome on the car but it has to be slammed down to fill in that wheel arch. I did the same thing on my AMG C32; totally changed the look and made it very aggressive.

There's acutually less fender well gap with the 20's due to the slightly taller overall diamater of the tires. It's all an optical illusion.
OK, so the gap is 3/10" smaller - In my eyes, it's still too big and it still stands like an SUV! optical-hallucination or not.
The way I look at it, if you're gonna spend that kind of money ($7k?) on new wheels & tires, do it right and lower the car and get that aggressive stance.
I can only imagine what the ride would be on a non-PASM car with 20" - a dentist's dream ;-)
PASM - Porsche Active Suspension Management
This active damping system offers continuous adjustment of individual damping forces based on current road conditions and driving style.
The driver can choose from two setup modes, ‘Normal’ and ‘Sport’, using a separate ‘damper’ button on the center console. ‘Normal’ mode is designed for general road driving and circuits with uneven tarmac. ‘Sport’ mode is intended for smoother track surfaces, where the harder settings help eliminate pitch and roll.
In either mode, PASM continuously evaluates the current conditions while automatically selecting the corresponding damper rates from the respective set of mapped values.
A range of sensors are used to monitor the movement of the body under acceleration, braking and cornering maneuvers, as well as on poor road surfaces. The PASM control unit then evaluates this data and modifies the damping force on each individual wheel in accordance with the selected mode. The result is a significant reduction in body movement as well as a better grip on the road.
For example: if ‘Sport’ mode is selected, the suspension is automatically set to a harder damper rating. If the quality of the track surface falls below a certain threshold, the system immediately changes to a softer rating within the ‘Sport’ setup range. When the quality of the tarmac improves once more, PASM automatically returns to the original, harder rating.
