I am thinking about getting some 10 spoke GT3 wheels that are powder coated black with a polished lip I am wondering if there is anyone out there with a yellow car with black wheels that would post a picture so I can get an idea of what it is going to look like. My car is pastel yellow but I would like to see speed yellow also.

Any comments on what you think about this combination would be appreciated.

Thanks
Randy

While not black, I did have these wheels repainted to a dark grey. It is a metalic paint, so they do appear lighter than they really are.

Randy and Randy starting black wheel treads back to back? WUWT?

Anyone know how to combine threads.?

Are you my long lost twin? Or is it just that great minds think alike?

I think that will look bitchin... The GT3 wheels are the perfect wheels to do color with polished lip...

I think yellow and red 911's look great with the black center/silver rim combo. Go for it.

Randy, I like your idea. I've seen red wheels on yellow race cars and loved it. Maybe too much for the street, tho.
Chris, what color are your wheels? They look great.

Rand

Hey Chris

Red colored wheels crossed my mind, but maybe a bit too racey, or should I say ricey for the street.

The color I ended-up with is some GM interior spec'd paint. Grey with metalic and some pearl. Really a neat color to see in person as I have not been able to capture its true color on film. Thanks for the compliments, all!

Rand,
Here is a set of GT3 for NB.... $4k for the set http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...958518377&rd=1

No affiliation what so ever to the seller.

You must be looking at the set Eli is selling off his 996.

Go for it, I think the contrast would look nice on a lighter colored car.

Take a look at this for color scheme (different wheels):

Opinion here.

Black will look gorgeous on your yellow car. Nice to see fellow owners who like colours... other than the mortuary ones

However, I think the GT3 wheel is too fussy. perhaps some 5 spoke 18 inchers?? IMO.

Chris,
I've said this before, but your car looks absolutely awesome!!


Hi Randy!

I, too, think that 10-spokes look a bit busy, not "bad" ...just prefer the cleaner lines of a 5-spoker, but that's me.

I also love the look of dark gray or silver-ish rims on yellow as opposed to stark-black rims. And on your pale yellow, I think that a something "less deep" than full black would look better ...somehow it just looks more "proper" for a sports car that lives on the street. Though for a full-tilt track car, black always looks really purposeful and menacing.
