I'm getting close to finalizing my build of a 991 2S with GT Silver and the espresso full leather interior and would like suggestions or photos about wheel choices. While the Carrera S wheel looks nice when clean, I want something different that doesn't show brake dust so am leaning toward Platinum wheels, or black. Any pictures, experience or opinions?

I've seen the beautiful pictures from ozdave with platinum paint at https://rennlist.com/forums/9860909-post46.html. Thanks

 

For silver, I 'think' platinum flows better, especially when brake dust is also your concern.
On the other hand, painted in black wheels looks a lot more expensive with all those gloss finish (and silver inner barrel) in my opinion. I have them both.

 

I'm also ordering GT Silver. The pictures I've seen of GT with the Platinum wheels are gorgeous! I'm going in that direction.

This link shows the combo. (Also with the Sport Design package, which I'm getting and love!!)

I went through exact same dilemma...

Decided carerra classics w/ espresso. Go for what you think looks best!

 

The platinum wheels look subtly tasteful, IMHO.

 

I love the red gauge faces! While I also love the red deviated stitching, I would hope it isn't too hard to keep it bright in the contact spots.

 

Platinum for sure. I saw them irl on a Silver 991, my dream combination. Too bad my misses is insisting on a white car. But hey, I still get the Platinum wheels ;-)
I figure if I have to choose between driving a white 991 with platinum wheels or not driving one at all, I'd be happy to give up my favorite Silver color and still enjoy a wonderfull car !

 

At least your wife has good taste in exterior colors.

 

I also have GT Silver and Espresso. Decided to go for platinum wheels. Yet to pick up my car though!
