That's next. I'll drop the CARRERA and center the 911 GTS.

I love silver wheels as well and to me they just give that car its own personality now. Congrats!! Thanks for sharing.

I showed my wife the pics of your new wheels & she yelled at me for not getting silver wheels in the first place. I told her the GTS only comes in black wheels & she asked how much it would cost to change them to silver! She did admit that the black wheels have grown on her. The only disadvantage I see with the silver wheels is brake dust. The black wheels cover that up very well. I am curious how the brake dust looks after a week of driving? If not too bad, I can see this as my next mod.

Your wheels look terrific! I have been toying with doing the same for a while, now just need to find a quality wheel painter in Nor Cal.

Thanks of sharing.

Thanks! I toyed with using Seal Grey, because my GT Silver Boxster came with Carrera Lightweights with Seal spokes, so I knew they worked well together. But with all the GT cars and most of the GTSs having dark wheels, I wanted to be noticeably different.

LOL, if you were considering HREs and then decided to paint instead, he doesn't have to have reasonable rates for you to feel like you just saved a fortune!
