I think this style is pretty cool. Curious to hear thoughts of others.

It's not my car but I am considering this for a Guards Red 993 C2.

Body color matched wheels or black wheels with polished or silver trimmed wheels? Either way, I think it worked well for black or white cars. I tried black Kinesis with polished lips and it didn't do it for me. My kids liked them however! 😂

No offense to anyone, but polished lip with a black spokes(in particular)looks a bit dated IMO. Silver or maybe gunmetal would look much better on Guards Red.

My car is outdated! 21 years old this year. 😀

Talking outdated, anyone have pictures of 993s with chrome or polished twist wheels? Thanks!

LOL Touché. This color combination was a popular choice in the early to mid-2000's.

Thanks for your input--that's why I asked. Hope more chime in.

Most likely I'll have original silver paint. I was just toying with the silver rim/lip with glossy black spokes. I like it but much prefer classic and classy to faddish.

There is no rubbing now, but it would've rubbed if i didn't roll the fenders.

Still think it's hard to beat the look of 18" Fuchs.
