2005 Porsche Cayenne Turbo
New Member

Whats going on everybody.......I have some questions that i couldnt find answers to when I searched the forum. I have a 1993 300E down in west palm beach fl, thats been through a tough 170K up in ct/ny/pa. My daily driver is a 05 Cayenne Turbo with a bunch of mods, and the 300E needs some mods really bad.

Whats the story with body kits, I know AMG makes 2 and Wald has one.....I'm not the biggest fan of the AMG Gen1 and the Wald is crazy expensive wherever i look. Where do i go from here??

I plan on buying the Euro headlights/LED tailights off EBAY and having the entire car repainted as well as the potential body kit and sections of the body that are grey.

Whats the best combination of springs and shocks that wont rub with 17inch wheels?? From what i heard the best combo was the H&R springs with the bilstien shocks....also where can i purchase these (best price)

I found a pair of the 17inch ASA JH8 on tirerack in black. They are cheap and look pretty nice....and only weigh 21lbs....does anyone have these wheels or know anything about them? Also what is the correct tire size to run in order not to rub with the springs and shocks combo....

I really appreciate any help!!! Heres a few pics....
