Default Kinesis Supercup pics

Well, I am taking the plunge and buying the FOURTH set of wheels for a car that still doesnt move (though it is getting VERY close).

Since I am going to need one wheel center I figure I will have them all PC'ed.

So, show em if you got em.

Supercups in any color. I am probably going to use traffic blue, which is a very bright blue, similar to the current GT3RS wheel center color. My car is white.

PC'd Black Chrome: Once the centers were Powerdercoated, they no longer slid into the wheel halves, we had to bore out the wheel halves a tad to get the centers to drop back in- not a big deal just a heads up!

oh btw- I think bright blue will look hot as hell on a white 951!

These are the first things Ive had powdercoated, the depth/finish is amazing. Im prob going to have my intercooler pipes, jpipe, intake manny, strut brace mounts all finished in the same color as well.

I'll post pics when I get home of mine, don't have them saved here at the office. I don't know if this is true, but someone said Kinesis is having problems with the centers and is not making them??? They're not on the Wheel Enhancement web page lately . . .

Matt, traffic blue is an excellent choice. The GT3RS is a real dream car. You should get a matching blue "Turbo" decal for the front fender. It would have a very "RS" look to it.

Max, I have already done some underhood parts that color and it was so different than the swatch looked. Funny thing was I liked it more! Once I get off my butt and make some IC pipes I will have them done the same color.

Damian, they are no longer producing centers, which is why these were such a good deal. The car probably wont be ready to move for another 2 weeks which gives me some time to look for one. If I cant find one, I will grab a different center for the time being.

Matt, what about blue center K28's? With a "turbo" decal in blue, similar script to the old "Carrera RS"? That would be a screaming one off.

These are my 18" Speedlines, 3 piece C2 Turbo rims, very similar to Kinesis Supercups though...

Matt, sorry to hear they slipped away. Nevertheless, here's my attempt at traffic blue and a couple more for fun...

Wow! I do not usually go for chrome but the chrome centers that Mike photoshopped look fabulous!
