Check the current lineup of collapsible spares that are used with the current Cayenne Turbo (957). The 955 CTTS should have the 380 mm front rotors. Ruf's big brake kit (Brembo) should be 380 mm - not 405 mm. The 957 CTT uses the monster ATE calipers and rotors. Those should be 380 mm minimum.

Be sure to check that the wheel & collapsible tire you find will fit in the wheel-well/trunk recession -- all 9PA/9PA1 Cayenne's have the same wheel-well trunk dimensions irrespective of model designation -- base, S, GTS, Turbo, Turbo S. Some early models have an extra battery, others a sub-woofer, etc.

I've been looking for a very, very long time for some 18" steel wheels for a winter/off-road set-up but I can't locate any, nothing for the Cayenne, Touareg, or Q7. I can find lots of 18" OEM wheels on Craigslist and other places but I really just want robust steel wheels with the same 18" x 8" dimensions (and bolt pattern) as the OEMs.

I have the OEM collapsible spare on a 18" steel rim (which perfectly fits in the wheel-well on top of/around the sub-woofer but it's a narrow wheel. My idea was to purchase four of them (the steel wheels which come with the collapsible tires) but I can't find them for a decent price and I'm also not sure how strong they are, and again, they're narrower then spec so I'm not sure if the wheels are designed for anything other than limp-home mode at 50mph with the mini collapsible tire.

This may be of interest: how to install the collapsible spare.

The same guy (David Leonoff) has some cool pics of the TPMS set-up.
