I have a set of genuine C4 wheels that I picked up in a moment of weakness off of CL for a steal. Do I put them on my Arctic Silver Targa? (yes, no, maybe, no way) Also open to refinishing them a darker shade. They are exactly the same size as those on it.

See below for my crude photoshop mock up. First photo = stock, Second photo = with the C4 wheels. Third photo = C4 wheels darker (this is not my car, only one I found online that seemed to be at the same height)

I vote for the first one but the C4 wheels looks good too. I agree, a darker color would look even better... You can try it on Photoshop?

I like the Targa Speedlines better.

Done. Original post updated to include third pic.

For some reason Targa wheels look right only on Targas...I'd keep the originals.

I also like the originals best.

Holy cow, I haven't seen this much agreement on Rennlist in a long time. Am I on the right website?

I have never seen those aftermarket wheels before but the stock speedlines look better. The other wheels don't look right with a 993.

Matt,
Keep the original wheels! Dump the others.

Those are 996 C4 wheels.

To help solidify your decision, here are those exact wheels, painted charcoal, on my dads Silver 993 Targa. (He has since sold these and reverted to the OE speedlines).

To my eye, these were somewhat reminiscent of the Fuchs, which is why I originally bought them. They are rare, and they looked cool to me - for a while.

Go with your opinion on them. I have 2010 Carrera wheels on my 993 - I love them, but hesitate to ask what others think... (Last pic)

Keep the original Speedlines. 996 wheels in last pic look dirty
