Those remind me of old firebird wheels from KITT on Night Rider

One of the problems is that you can't see that there are any problems...

Here are a couple of my 996 that I just had powdercoated. Totally changed the look of the car. I am going to do the 928 next.

Hey Oscar,
Are those Sport Design wheels?? I have a set of 18" on my S-4. Mine are custom chromed and painted. Here is a picture. They were done at Fast Forward Wheels

They are the stock silver powdercoated Porsche wheels that came on the 996.* The pain in the butt part was that I had to strip the powdercoating off first before I could coat them to do it right.* I still need to get lug nuts and centercaps.Oscar

Charley, thanks for the compliment. You would be surprised how many people think that they are after market wheels OEM on the 996

Oscar: I saw some really nice black center caps with a white porsche logo outline that would look awsome on those wheels
