Default New Panamera With Old School Twist ;) Must See - A Wheels Boutique Production





Many of us yearn for the old-school styling of cars that released in the era of the 70’s & 80’s. How can we show our appreciation for that golden age of automotive styling on our new technologically advanced vehicles? A simple and extremely cool way to do it is to go with retro styled aftermarket wheels. This Chalk colored 971 Porsche Panamera pays homage to the 911 generations of the past with the Rotiform FUC forged wheel. A completely custom wheel that comes in sizes ranging from 14”-24” and any finish that you can imagine. If you’d like to learn more about the Rotiform brand and specifically this FUC model do not hesitate in contacting us. Enjoy!

Wheel Specs:
Rotiform FUC
Size: 22”x10.5” // 22”x12”
Finish: Matte Over Polished Clear with Matte Black Windows
Tires: Pirelli P Zero Nero
Front: 265/30/22
Rear: 315/25/22


PM us for details, availability, and pricing on Rotiform Wheels & Pirelli tires. Tell us what you think by commenting below!

I usually really like your pics, but this one... That thing is ugly from front to back and top to bottom. The wheels make it look even worse.

Thank you all for the comments.

Another car lowered incorrectly with tire killing negative camber so far out that it will effect braking, acceleration, handling, and tire life.
But, but, it looks cool, so ghetto

Question for those who have posted:

Do you guys think the C7 Z06 would look good with retro-styled wheels? Maybe something that we have seen on previous generation Vette's like the famous "Saw Blade"?

I'm interested in hearing opinions on that
