Default Wheels - Before and After Panamera wheels

Here are a couple of pictures of my "new" Panamera wheels I just installed on my 86 928. Tires are Falken 265/35/18 rear and 235/40/18 front.

Default Kind of wheel-related...

..some new brake bling:





I've always liked the look of red calipers on black Porsches, and have wondered what they'd look like on my GT.
But since the original black finish on my GT calipers is in excellent shape and I want to be able to quickly and easily go back to 100% original at any time, I decided to 'protect' the finish with a removable red fliex coating with PORSCHE decals, finished with a glossifier.
It's not really heat rated the way caliper paint is, and although the finish is glossy, it isn't slippery so we'll see how easy it is to clean and how holds up with the heat and in the elements. If it starts to really go to hell, I'll just peel it off and go back to the original black finish.

Nothing pretentious...just a nicely polished set of original aluminum.




Nice old man stuff.

Panamera wheels powdercoated semi-gloss black. Really changed the look of the car.

One of the final touches to finishing my Spyder was installing the wheels I purchased last year. 18" CMS 5-spokes - 8" Fronts with 235/40 & 10" Rears with 295/35 and 15mm rear hubcentric spacers

Nice wheels. I think I may go with the same wheels myself since mine look great but does not work
Luckily, mine should work with the 964 I recently required
