So is the Acura TLX, its a pretty common design. There is only so much you can do with a wheel design.

Those don't look like the wheels on the Porsche. I get the shapes are similar but one looks expensive and the other looks cheap when compared. If I seen the Acura wheels by themselves they don't look bad but when comparing, they don't look as good in my opinion.

Of course the Acura wheel is lower quality than the Porsche wheel and all wheels are round too ��

The design might be similar, but I don't think they're the same wheels. The one on the Carrera look like an exact copy of the 19" Cavo's that we are able to get on the S5.

I much more prefer the mesh design wheels on the 992.
