I still take a contrary position. I like a certain amount of contrast and black tends to work for me. Then again, I like black wheels - so take it for what it's worth.
I'm right in the middle of refinishing some 17" twist wheels in in silver in order to have a second set of wheels.
I got them for cheap off Craigslist but they've got curb rash on every wheel.
I'm kinda "meh" with the looks of the twists.
I've always though my Carrera IIs were the best looking wheels on a 996, but MAN do I like the look of your wheels!
What color are they?
I wonder what that color would look like with seal gray.
Someone pry me away from the keyboard so I don't order some OZ wheels!
My 996 today? Boring run to store to buy more beer. At least the run in the car was good. But are we ever going to come out on the other side of all this? Did I mention I hate wearing a mask? Well I do, and mostly refuse. And the hand sanitizer is killing my steering wheel....sigh...blah de blah de blah

Hey now, I wear a mask all day even before COVID, so you're preaching to the choir, here :P
More Leatherique applications for your steering wheel may be necessary, and some nice lotion for your skin!
I dropped off my 17" twist wheels at Discount Tire and had them dismount and discard the 14 year old barely worn tires on them.
I picked them up later and the guy who worked there asked me again if I was sure I didn't want them.
Date code of early 2006....nope!
They really were nice looking, but I'm not going to drive (at the speeds I like to drive) on 14 year old tires.
Now I can refinish the wheels (curb rashed ) and install some new tires.

I am in the same boat - mine look great but I believe are pushing 8 years old. Gonna have to update them soon.
Please post more pictures. Currently in the midst of deciding what colour to repaint in...
It's a beautiful color, it really changes depending on the light, I love it! here you go, hopefully i don't get banned for so many pictures, lol
