Gonna disagree with you big time
Also I'll raise the ante one higher. If these weren't RUF branded rims nobody would give a flying fuck about em.
The rims have neither lip or deep dish to it, the 5 spoke design is unoriginal and boring, powder coated rims suit the "murdered" out look style ten fold

How much concern is there to be had for lightweight forged rims on a 5000LBS SUV? I could see the need for the RUF rims on a GT2 or GT3
The only thing these RUF wheels have going for them on the Cayenne is the width. Nobody would be able to tell these apart from stock rims if the rims were 18".

I'm a huge porshe fan but I'll take a set of HRE's over RUF rims on a cayenne any day of the week. I'm pretty sure 95% would agree.

^ I can understand what you're saying, they do look stock-ish. However, Ive seen these rims in person and they have an understated sexiness about them. Perhaps its the finish that makes them look 'boring', I think they would look really sick if they were powder coated.

Wheels designed for Porsche > Aftermarket

like Jay-Z said holmes, young enough to know the right car to buy yet grown enough not to put rims on it :P

Altima? Don't think I've seen it.
There's a Maxima 3.5 SE. and maybe a Caravan and Canyon
drive limit, no problems =]

I agree RUF wheels are heavy....made for autobahn cruising vs race track....RUF wheels look boring.....but imo they are a timeless design that works so wheel on 911s, the wheels looks oem. For those who want to be subtle when modding his porsche, RUF is the way to go...but if you want to be flashy, HRE or Iforged is the way to go....

Mr.Jay 09-18-2010 10:39 PM

hes actually making the weight comment to the car as in who gives a fuck if they are 8 pounds lighter than stock since they are still being ridden on by a fuckin cow of a car

I agree tho Ruf is name brand

name brand + rims + nice car = everyone will say it looks good but I agree rims dont do much for me I mean I know the are function over form but still

The noble looks like a kitted MR2
And Dylan do you just follow the owners of the exotics until you can get a good picture because I rarely see exotics in Vancouver during my daily outings.

If I were driving a Lambo or Ferrari, I sure as hell wouldn't want some guy taking pictures of my car and then plastering them up on the internet without prior written consent. I doubt you ask the people if you can take pictures of their ride. Even if its legal its still considered rude.

wow... @ noble, riviera and viper ACR.. holy smokes

I'm gna stick up for dylan on this one, either look at the pictures and enjoy or don't! Whether he follows these ppl for days or jus randomly sees them is really no ones business, he's gone through the trouble of taking the pics and uploading em just so we can see them, I for one appreciate that, this thread isn't made for creeper status its made so we can enjoy some pics of sick rides around our city, idk how u can say its rude lol liscense plates are blurred for a reason, don't listen to this clown dylan keep the pics comn! :thumbsup: btw I saw the pics u took on sr homepage of the 458 under covers at sr gallery, do u kno what mods they were gna do to it, hopefully its a little more special than just adv1's and matte wrap lol shud be interesting to see

Edit: n.m those pics were takin by R.Rolando, got u guys mixed up lol my bad, still can't wait to see what sr does to that 458

Perhaps the other photographers can chime in but one doesn't need permission to shoot in a public space. The attention and having your picture snapped is part of the exotic ownership package. If exotic owners were as uptight as you -- all the ones I've met are the opposite: they're friendly, humble, and passionate as any car guy -- then all of the spotter's threads would be gone. Thankfully, that's not the case and there have been many instances of the owner giving compliments to the spotter in taking a well composed shot.

Would you expect anything less if you bought an exotic car? Exotic cars are not seen often, and many times enthusiasts will take pictures. If you don't want attention go buy a Corolla.

Who cares, I woulden't of bought an Exotic car if attention bothered me.
