    19” rims on Taycan - reasons to choose them

    Coming from country, where we have a winter and potholes, 19” has been my choice and I wanted to share how comfortable that is - goes like a tank over rough surfaces. Highly recommend if you plan to use Taycan in similar conditions. And, they actually look great :)

    Heat resistant windows

    Just a note - they add a very sexy visual accent. Yet to see how effective they are in the summer. Also it seems that the heat resistant additive is applied to front and panorama only (based on visual inspection).
