20 Inch Wheel Install on my 981 Cayman

Finally got a set of 20" Carrera S III wheels and had them wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and installed on my 981 Cayman.

The original wheels looked better and probably drove better as well.

Stunning. I have the black 19" Carrera II S tires on my Carrera white Cayman S and think they look great. The white trim is a very nice touch. Your wheels look stunning!

Sorry. I preferred the wheels that were on it originally.

[@slaWterCH]

Very good choice! I have the same wheel and tyre combo. I really like how easy they are to clean. Simple shapes and big openings. I really appreciate that after driving in the rain or snow for days. Personally, I think that the silver ring is quite noticeable and it goes great with my GT Silver. I wouldn't paint over it. My winters go on these wheels as well as I don't like to have two different sized wheels during the year.

Do an exhaust upgrade!

I have the same 20 wheels on my 981 GTS with PASM 10 mm lowered sus. and the ride quality is horrible. I am really considering swapping them for a smaller 18 set with large tires maybe 50 hight because the road quality where I live sucks and gradually you gonna hate any harsh ride even if it’s my dream car. Do you think that will significantly improve my ride quality?

Nice i have a 2014 porsche cayman and it has 18" wheels. im considering getting 20" wheels !. how do you feel about the drive in these ? thanks

Nice wheel set up. Use restraint with the new rubber as they a slick until the residue from factory is worn off. I t have 20" Carrera in black with coloured crest on my silver CS, with Pirelli P Zero. May switch to the Michelin 4 S as a replacement. At the moment, I have almost 18,000 Kms on original tires.

Are these 20” from 991 C2S? I wonder if 981 can fit them?

[@marcvalme7732]

Any noticable difference in ride quality going from 18's to 19's?

[@geofo60]

Recently found your channel. Great choice of wheels , I have the same 20”” Carrera S in gloss black as yours but with Pirelli P Zero tyres. What’s your opinion on the Michelin’s? They seem to be getting very popular. I have black valves on my Cayman & they’re almost unnoticeable from a few feet away, I also have the door mirrors in black along with the rear tailgate spoiler & red brake callipers. Regards from the U.K.

The PS4s are so good. Much better than the Pirelli’s. Highly recommended.

A little drop will make all the difference in the world. I think most do the HR springs which will close that wheel gap nicely.

[@tkbr0wn]

German Driver looks good already, but if you are thinking about next steps, I think that's the biggest bang for the buck aesthetically.

[@sirgalahad1470]

Wheels look fantastic !

[@bondscalper]

Wow what a difference!!!!

[@1969trevor1969]

Nice !

[@100thomasmagnum]

20 inch is waayyyy better. Ya know, if you are gonna paint the calipers, paint them yellow. Stands our even more and you get that total race look...ceramic brakes like.

[@B6TurboNH]

Might want to invest in an impact wrench and sockets. Will save you so much time. FYI, Cars and Coffee in Portsmouth, NH tomorrow. July was big, I can only expect this one to be big as well.

[@sachmobeemweaver5245]

Agree with the caliper painting mod. Beautiful car! How is the ride with larger wheels? Ride quality? Sound?

[@ManuBienenstich]

Congrats for this great wheels. Could you please tell me, what jack you've used. Thx a lot.

[@saqibzulfiqar8025]

Congrats on the car. It looks awesome. Just curious who did you get the wheels and the tires from?

[@TDS981]

Nice wheels, these are the lightest 20" oem 981 wheels.

[@Perazzi11]

now you need the sport suspension to lower it 20mm

[@garylancaster4184]

Own a 2015 Boxster S with 20" wheels. Previously owned a 2014 Boxster S that had 19" wheels and Goodyear F1's. I track the car and absolutely hated the Goodyears. The only mod I made to the '14 was to replace the Goodyears with Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Transformation on the track was unbelievable. Whereas previously I had understeer, and overall lack of grip, the car now became totally hooked up. The 2015 has Pirelli P Zero's, and even though I don't hate them as much as the Goodyear's, the Pirelli's are a poor track choice. I live in the South where heat is a factor, and the tracks I use are Atlanta Motorsports Park and Road Atlanta. I really look forward to upgrading to the new Michelin Pilot Sports 4S's, so I'm interested in your impressions of this latest generation of Michelin's street/track performance tire.

[@garylancaster4184]

Any insight you can provide regarding the PS4'S will be appreciated. I really can't wait to get the P Zero's off. As I mentioned, the Pirelli's are OK for street driving, but they do give up a lot on the track. And BTW, congratulations on the 981 Cayman; and the best of luck with it. A truly remarkable and beautiful automobile.
