I have a question, and I mean no offense. I'm probably asking this out of ignorance because I'm not a car guy.

What's the big deal about wheels? Is it just a looks thing, or is there some performance enhancement that I don't know about?

I was at the Porsche site the other day (yes, I'm compensating). Go there http://www.porsche.com/usa/models/cayenne/ and click to build your own Cayenne. Do the regular one, not one of the upscale versions.

So you start to pick the vehicle, which starts out at under $44,000. Then you get to the wheels, and they give a dozen choices, which start out at $0 and go up to an astounding (to me) $7,490! If you asked me to pick amongst those wheels, I don't think I could identify the free one versus the one that costs more than a small motor home. Seriously, what's the deal?
