stay with stock color on porsche wheel for polar silver. Ruf platinum looks great too, a little more contrast. almost anything else is not going to look right with polar silver. I have full polished fikse wheels that I think look good on the polar silver.
I think anything darker that polar silver is going to look like crap.

This is quite a tough debate. I just purchased Macca's rims and have put them on my car. On his 993 they look FANTASTIC - On mine - just OK.

I have attached a pic of a polar silver 993 RS with polar silver centers - this is my current preference...............until I see something better........

My rims are painted very similar colour to GT2 rim below.

I do think red painted calipers are essential to provide a contrast.
