little' bit of squattage goin on here

That white looks really nice -- what kind of white is that? I'm the process of repainting my wheels white and the first shade of white that I used came out too 'dirty' looking -- so I'm restripping them this week.

We did a poll on wheels colors last week, and only one guy voted for orange. The next set of extra wheels I end up with will certainly be orange.

Thanks for the pics Luke, i am definitely pondering the idea of a white wheel for my car. I currently have two sets of phone dials, the 15'' stock and 951 phone dials, so maybe ill play with some colors and see what i like....Or i could always just ask the photoshop experts

Anyway, thanks for the pics! I love the look of the white on your car!

Erich, there are couple of pics of red 944s with white wheels in this thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...hreadid=112076

Luke

In case anyone is interested, I have a set of late offset 16" phone dials that are straight but need refinishing. While they would make great track wheels just as they are, I figured this thread was fitting to plug the wheels - So, if you are pondering painting a set of phone dials, this set may be worth looking into. The first $300.00 takes them cash and carry, or I can ship within the US, you pay the actual freight.

Thanks in advance!

Oh, and for what it is worth, a friend of mine once had a set of phone dials he painted white on a red 951 - They looked quite nice!

FWIW, I have a set of 16X7/8 powdercoated white D90s. Look great on dark color cars and even red ones. Good condition somewhere in the 350 range plus shipping (less than 50 bucks) will take them.

Thanks for the Link Joe! I like the look of white phone dials on a red car and i think i'll be looking into that further!

Matt/Scott- If i didnt already have a set of PD's to paint white id pick up one of those sets. Goodluck selling them!

Thanks Guys!

Those orange wheels are cool for a track car, although I don't think I'd want to see those driving around on the street.

Thom

Actually those magnesium rims are yellow, not orange. It's a matter of lighting and quality of the camera I suppose ...

Well these wheels are lime green. Definitly.




Of course for "track only"

.... but not on my car

You are right Thom, I took this photo and my camera (Nikon Coolpix 885) tends to saturate red tones a lot. Those rims are actually dark yellow.

Thom

They're even turning light yellow since they changed hands (sorry, private joke).
