Southampton and kimo, you just cost me $219 for clear corners unless you know somewhere less expensive. Those look great, and the black wheels are awesome too!

Stealth is the way to go. Black wheels and a lower black 964 look great, especially with contrasting big reds front the rear. Before I had the wheels painted I got compliments, but since, people now drool over it :-)

Maybe on a black car but I found leaving a little silver gets a lot of compliments. It looks even better while moving.

I agree. Full black on cars with solid colours, otherwise leave a "ring of silver". If you want black wheels at all of course...

I saw some trend pics in a german magazine the other day and now a coming trend seems to be white wheels. So I'm already there and my full black set is in the garage

oh-God-no.
It's taken me 20 years to sweep those friggin' 'Miami Vice', 80's monocolor, 'tuner cars out of my head!

(Sorry, but I couldn't find one of those truly gag-worthy 80's triple-white Gemballa cab images I'd been hoping to picture. You know -- like the ones causing riots at auction houses these days...) [crickets]

You are correct, sir!
Present company excepted. Apologies for any unintended pellet scatter. (Took scattergun lessons from my good friend, VP Chaney)

(Those GT3 RS colors are hard to pass up -- huh?...)

Thanks Anthony, but the car is far from dead yet. From what I understand it will begin a metamorphosis this summer and by next year it will become a turbo-look widebody. Right now it's sitting in my garage without an engine, tranny, and a few other parts waiting for his new owner to pick her up next weekend.

Good news but it still looked great as is. You brought that car a long way from when you first got it.
