Default Looking at Some OZ Wheels - Opinion on 3 Colors Wanted (pics)
Looking at some different wheels for the car. The TT are a little worn. The car is black and I was looking at black and anthracite. But a way out part of me is thinking about going with orange. Would love to get some feedback on the three options. THANKS!

Stole this picture from Coleman. His car looks great with the anthracite.

Not crazy about all black, needs some contrast.

Anthracite looks great if you are not going to do anything else.

if you go orange, I would add a Carrera stripe and paint/vinyl the mirrors in matching color.

Orange looks like Haloween. Way too flashy for a black Porsche. I vote anthracite.

The rims come in red, no? Red with red script would be my choice. Vinyl is temporary.

Orange for me I think you will get bored with the other two colors.

Edit: Actually my second choice would be anthracite. Very hard decision

I went with the black for the contrast, your car would look great with anthracite.
