I find the SD wheels boring....if you after classic look perfect but if you want sportier look then it has to be RS spyders....not being biased


+1. The SD wheels are similar to Carerra S wheels on the 981 which I had on my Boxster. I think this sort of style and colour of wheel looks better on the Boxster/Cayman than on the Macan.

And the flat faced diamond cut/polished outer face means that you can just give the outer face a quick wash over if time is of the essence.

Spyders look flimsy and light weight .

SD look much better on the Macan, and are so easy to clean my car looks like its just left the showroom after every washdown.

For me, SD wheels look smaller than they actually are. Look cheap compared to Spyders...

Afternoon all, first post.

Deposit paid for our Agate baby 3 weeks ago. We have been given a delivery date of late November from OPC Silverstone. This will be the longest 9 months! 

My first of what may be many questions is RS spyder wheels or 20" Macan Sportdesign wheels? Im not sure if the spiders don't get a bit lost with the agate. 


Hi Steve,
Probably best to get both with winter tyres on the Sportsdesign wheels

Steve G sure everyone will help you spend your hard earned cash, we all have preferences, I have the Agate Grey with Spyders and in my view they look excellent together, if I was choosing a Blue Colour/White/Black then I would have gone for black wheels, one thing I would recommend, if budget allows, is the Pano roof as it certainly makes the interior light and "breezy"




Spud, that's a good looking package, the agate colour looks really nice, and having seen one in the dealers, I know in real life yours looks even better.

Is that the petrol you have?

Now that is the best wheel for the agate,, super stealthy gazzathehutt..

For me That would be the wheel for an agate next time around definately..

My spiders are nice but the classics add another dimension..
