Default Anyone seen GT silver with chrome wheels...

I have a 997GT3 and the standard finish GT wheels just don't seen to do anything with the GT silver body. Wheel enhancement sells the GT wheels in chrome. Any opinions.

Well, alright then. Guess I'll go back to the flat graphite grey powdercoat idea and risk the heat damage that is much debated. Thanks.

Chrome and Silver is a questionable match, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Grey powdercoat will look great. You're not driving an Escalade, forget the chrome.

Since we don't know where you live we can guess either Michigan or south Florida... :-)

Actually I have seen more chrome wheels on cars in California than any state! Not necessarily P cars but in general.
