Let's see some of YOUR favs. I think the optimum wheel size for the Macan is 21" at most... 20 or 21's would look perfect, whereas 22 would probably be a bit too big.
Here are some rims I like & some websites of some good companies. Feel free to click the links below & enter the subcategories then save & post any pics of rims you think would look good on the Macan!
edit-Forget the colour of the rim in the picture. ALL rims come in silver, black, and chrome. Just looking for the actual style of the rim. Personally, I'm looking for black rims for my white Macan & any rim that is in silver below also comes in black which is great. I just posted a bunch of different options.

I've come across a few multi-piece wheels that are fitted for the F90 (2018-2023) M5. The specs are very similar to OE Macan specs:

21” HRE 305 Classic 3 piece wheels, 5x112, CB 66.6mm, (F) 21x10 ET23 (R) 21x11 ET29

BBS LM 20x10 +22, 20x11 +24 5x112

I have 10, 15 and 20mm spacers should there be any clearance issues, but given the bolt pattern, CB, and offsets similar to OE Macan, is there any reason these wouldn't work?

Hey all,

I’ve done my best to try and find anyone with experience with this wheel manufacturer Mantra, but had no luck. Riding on my stock 20” pirelli all seasons which came with my 23 S. I’ve read that these tires last no longer than 20-30k miles and I’m trying to plan ahead. Looking at getting these wheels, TPMS sensors, and lugs to match for winters when the time comes in a year or so. Any insights appreciated! Link below.

Bought these OE reps, 21” $1100 delivered

nice finish

balanced well

only prob I’ve had is the center caps are black vs machined like OE, they are also larger dia then OE

the caps came w a shield indention but no Porsche decal

asked the seller for logos, got some but they don’t that great

Found another vendor for the badges, they looked better

They look nice, where did you buy them if you don't mind telling?

I have a '21 Macan (base model) with 18" stock rims. Looking to upgrade to a 20" rim. I have found a few on Fitment and America's Tire that I might be interested in. My (somewhat grumpy/old school) independent mechanic told me that any after market rim will not fit the spindles correctly and will shimmy or vibrate. "The lug nuts don't support the vehicle weight, the spindle does". I want him to mount my new rims with new tires because I trust him. Couple mediocre/bad experiences with Americas Tire so they are out. If there are all of these after market vendors selling new rims to buyers everywhere, they have to fit correctly, right? Is there some sort of adaptor for each spindle size? There cant be that many people out there running around on after market rims that shimmy... Really don't want to be limited to OEM rims. Any advice would be appreciated.

Assuming you get a wheel with a 5x112 bolt pattern and a center bore of 66.5 mm (or larger with an adapter hubcentric ring to bring it down to 66.5mm) it will work.

The other things to consider are that a lot of aftermarket wheels that are not Porsche specific require conical lug bolts as opposed to the OEM spherical and wheel widths and offsets should be close to OEM to avoid contacting suspension components. You can alleviate the fitment concerns by comparing the new wheels to OEM wheels in an online wheel comparison calculator.

Thank you both. I think I'll try to find an OE wheel to avoid any drama down the road. I see a lot of sets on the internet but I'm a bit leery of purchasing anything from a private party. Do either of you have any reputable vendor OE websites. I looked at a fellow Forum poster (RADHAUS WHEELS) for wheels but nothing available. I see a section for Market Place on the Forum. Is that a reputable source?

With a private party, or even a used supplier, there is always that risk of a bent wheel. Its sometimes not their fault because you can't always see it but as long as they spin test it to ensure its fine, it will be ok. I've bought both from used yards and private parties, only to have them in need of repair. It all ended up ok, but was an extra hassle.

@RADHAUS Should have stock, hopefully he can chime in with 20" options for you. He will sell you wheels that are straight and true.

If you want to go new, forged, and aftermarket, try Forged Performance. I had a set and liked them a lot, but wanted OE in the end for resale. I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again now that I have extra sets of OE wheels on hand.

Finally settled on the new wheels for Delilah. She got a set of Litespeed Racing 3 Piece VR5's with magnesium spokes and carbon fiber barrels. Sizes are 21x10 and 21x11.

Kirsten and I couldn't be happier. These wheels are so light when compared with the stock Turbo wheels, it is literally ridiculous. It also amazes me how much of the 21" wheel is filled by the PP brake upgrade.

Since these photos I have lowered her a bit with some cheater links, but I'll likely go lower... because altitude reflects attitude.

How much does each wheel weigh?
