A couple of pics of my '13 CTT on Falken WildPeak A/T Trails, size 265/50/20 (a little oversize from stock, 29.1" vs 30.4") navigating the wilds of suburbia.
These are severe snow rated and make the Colorado winter a non-issue.

Major sale on the Momo wheels on @iambored ’s rig. I don’t think they’ll fit over my Turbo calipers but may fit other Cayennes.

Looks great and more than capable in the wilds of suburbia, what are the rim specs and model? Thanks.

Hello Everyone,
As the Cayenne Platform is getting more and more popular with the overland/offroad crowd. There's not much information on the forum for the 958 Chassis. From what I understand ,the 958 has less room to fit bigger tires than the 956/957. Let's share your current wheel/tire setup and suspension mods so we can use it as data for future 958 owners who are interested.
Here is mine :
2015 Cayenne Diesel with Factory Air
Wheel Spec : Momo Heritage 6 Wheels
Wheel Size : 18x8 ET30
Tire Size : 265/60R18 Falken Wildpeak AT3W
Suspension : Factory Air Suspension
Alignment Spec : Stock
Fitment : No Rub on Normal Ride height / Slight rub on fender liner when reverse

I believe the 2015 models, including the Diesel, have large brakes all around, 350 or 360 up front and 330 in the rear. I have a 995 Turbo and those are the same spec, for the rotors at least.
Questions -
Are you running spacers and how much?
Did you have to do anything about the rubbing (I have air suspension)?
Do you have any photos of the caliper clearance?
Cheers.

Just installed 255/55-18 BFG KO2 on 955 triple 5 spoke rims ET57 that are OEM from BBS and easy to find used on facebook / cl, etc. Vehicle is a 2014 CD. I stuck with a factory tire size for mileage, tire weight and road noise reasons.
Probably 95% of my driving will be on the road, with family, so I wanted a tire that is strong (no flats), gives decent mileage and can hold its own on overland type outings, forest service roads, etc. I've been running KO2's for about 10 years on various 100 and 200 series landcruisers in the US and central america, never had a flat tire.

these rims look so good, I’m very interested in these for a meaty tire setup (same spec as yours), but not sure if they’re readily available. Will hit up some vendors.

For those using AT Trails, what’s been your experience in rain//snow (any hydroplaning)? The Trails get rave reviews, but hydroplaning is rumored to be their weak spot (and one I wouldn’t want to touch on the better-half’s daily).
I loved the Falken Wildpeak AT3Wa’s on our Diesel, but with the Turbo not able to fit 18” wheels, the options are a lot more limited.
Anyone have recommendations for all-terrain tires on 19’s or 20’s for the 958? ( @gregeast ?)

this is a screen cap from the hoovie / vinwiki cayenne 958.2 build. apparently the braid 18's can fit on the turbos. I'm happy with my OEM 18s on CD but damn those Braids are nice looking should I ever win the lottery.
