Replying to: habitat1 (Jul 21, 2007 8:00 am) I own a Cayenne and ordered it with the factory 19's and bought a set of 17's 'take-off's' for the winter. I can say the difference in handling with the 19's is noticable over the 17's, but even with the 17's the Cayenne is a great handler given the size and weight. I just put a new set of 19's on and it's not cheap but not over the top either. However, the Cayenne has a limited range of Porsche N-spec tires that are OK to use on the Cayenne so the choices are limited. I went with Pirelli's for mine. I can't imagine the ride getting better with shorter side-walls on tires up to 22', in fact, I would expect it to degrade with perhaps minor handling improvements. One thing I can say for sure is that the Cayenne is hyper-sensitive to any imbalance in the wheels. Anyone buying tires for this should look for a shop with a Hunter Road-Force balance machine or they may be un-happy with the results no matter the tire size. Anyway, I find the 19's a good compromise between handling, cost and performance and having my 17's for the NY winters allows me to use the Cayenne year round. JR |

I have a 2005 Cayenne Turbo with 33k miles and about 17 months left on the warranty (50k/4 years). Where would be the best place to buy a 2 year extension. Can you get this from Porsche? I have read their website and there's not a lot of info?? Thanks
