Default PS Request: OZ Ultraleggera on GTS ?

Hello everyone, I need a favor ;

Can any of the photoshop experts here help me with choosing a color for my centerlock 19" ultraleggera's ?

I am torn between, gold, bronze, white and graphite ?

If anyone could help me out I would truly appreciate it. Here are photos of my car and the wheels in each color to help you a bit.

Thanks in advance,

Can

I believe you can do that om TireRack.com. Just plug in your car model and start picking wheels!

FYI: Here's my 997 with 20x8.5 and 20x11 Ultraleggera HLTs in matte silver. Lowered ~one inch. I might consider black wheels (Fuchs-style or Leggera) on my NB C2 if it had black stone guards.

graphite bronze + gold will look fine - i would recommend u do a quick photoshop of the color only on your current wheels.

Sorry for the terrible quality, here is my GTS, with the black/red center Ultraleggera. Will try to take a few more pics tonight but they look great!

Anything but black - no visible wheel detail in the dark wheelwells.

I like Bronze on white as long as it's the browner bronze and not the golder ones. Don't know if OZ makes a Brushed Titanium Smoke but that's a beautiful finish as well and almost did it on my Forgelines, but it was too similar yo the same GT Silver color of my car and I like the wheels to not match the body color.

bronze was my first choice but then I wouldn’t put the sport classic stripes as there would be too many colors clashing. White, grey, bronze etc.

After long and hard consideration, I decided to go for sonrrhing rather bold. I know this will split decision but I ordered the centerlock OZ wheels in white

Sort of a RS 4,0 vibe I am going for. Might be coupled with sport classic stripes down the line.

Life is too short to make safe choices

The Matte Silver OZ looks great! But PLEASE Don't get black again (seems like you won't).

I simply don't understand anyone who loves black wheels? WHY? Just to hide brake dusts? You literally can't see how the wheel looks like, so what's the point of spending tons of money for a great looking wheel, that's black and hidden?! Just don't get it, but that's just me!

Perfect example of black wheels being hidden, pics aren't great, BUT STILL, you simply cannot see how the wheels look like being in black!

My car came with Black wheels otherwise I wouldn't have optioned for them. Especially with that silver ring.

Let's how the white OZ's will look
