Haha. Around spring time I may step up to be the white car-black wheel guinea pig.

On a side note, I don't think that could be pulled off without having a large wing like and RSA wing. Black wheels with no spoiler just doesn't cut it, IMO.

I did not powered it, only painting, with clear painting afterwards. Both colors are paintet. The red line was painted by covering the black color with tape. Nice and easy. One friend of my did it. He is a pro, the price for normal customer is prob. about 200 £.

Red calipers ? - maybee, but thease are black now and it looks nice to.

Euromagination; go head, black wheels on white 911 is even more better looking than red. That is the new trend - trust me ! And you are also right regarding the wing -- its a must..

Best from Norway

I like them. Not sure if the red stripe looks a bit like japanese styling or not. But its different and it looks good.

If you guys want to see how this looks on a GP White car then there was a guy on here who had a Twin Turbo 964 which kicked out around 640bhp and that was white with black wheels but his user name escapes me at the moment. Anyone remember who it was?

Edit: It was C4TT and you can see a pic in this thread.

Jim, that was me last summer in Cannes,..Can you imagine ?,. No, it’s got to be more, down to Earth, or road level! Thanks for photoshop, or in fact a real image?..Straight line quarter mile drag, wrong track, or wrong car, but, someone was having fun, I would have loved to have seen it myself!...

Nice, but as you maybe understand...I like black!

Some red calipers would do the job to!

Thansk for the comment Alf964!

I posted some pics two weeks ago or something. Look for a thread called "pics...if you like black"

Satin black center w/silver lip and red calipers. The high gloss black just doesn't suit me, nor does the red lip.

Someone use to sell a plastic ring that went between the lip and tire. Anyone remember that?

To keep the wheel rolling,….I came across a photo I took not so long ago,. More and more of the, real 911’s (air-cooled) are going this route in the German Porsche 911 Magazines,. In a December edition, two 911/964’s are highlighted with this, as it used to be look,..Bring back the old, rock’n roll! Bring back the old, wheel options!.. Especially since I, like so many already have, Cup 1’s 17 X 7, 17 X 9,. Save the money for a stainless steel roll-bar,...Double Dog,... Has anybody done this modification?..

PS. sorry for the dusty picture taken under the same dusty conditions...
