Even pics of my matte black center caps like you are thinking about. They make a clear coat that would shine them up if needed, but I wanted matte.

Depends on how its done - with accents, or not the entire wheel in the same coluor.

Arena Red actually looks very sharp with black wheels, even if they are all black.

Thanks Everyone!

I am pretty Sure I am going to paint the newer 996 Turbo Twists and leave the stock 993 turbo twists alone. I am going to have the shop paint one wheel Arena Red and another Steel Grey, both with polished lips and see which one looks better. If anyone has pics of an arena red car with painted wheels that they could post that would also be helpful.

Thanks,
Ryan

Found this one on the web.

A few images from the archives (Vesuvius is the grey)... I'm not sure I'd paint one of each to help decide. I'd pick a color and stick with it. Changing back can be quite a task (sanding, re-priming, re-painting, etc.).

Sure. 996 Turbo's, Arena Centers, brushed lip. Done by Wheel Enhancement in L.A.

Here is a photoshop with gray/gun metal wheels. I like it better then the arena red match.

Here is my 993tt with gunmetal painted wheels

I just bought some gunmetal gray Plasti Dip spray.... stay tuned.

Mike J

done that, and posted pictures I seem to remember - the gunmetal has too much blue in it, it does not look right with Arena Red. I switched over to black, much better.

cheers,

Mike
