I bought the car used a few months ago and the previous owner wasn't entirely forthcoming about the cosmetic condition of the wheels. When the car was inspected the wheels were coated in brake dust - my fault for not wiping them clean to look at the paint. After bringing the car home and spraying the wheels down it was obvious they were pitted, dinged and dull - doh!

All fixed now Thanks to rimandwheelworks!:

 

Good local resource. Thanks for sharing.

 

did they wet paint or powder coat paint?

remind us to never buy from the guy you bought your gt3 from.

looks way better than stock silver. well done.

 

i skipped on the powder coat because of all the fuss on this board about heating them up, etc. they're painted and they look great.

 

your brake calipers are too shiny

you need to make them brown

 

good catch - they WERE brown, but the car was up on jack stands for 10 days, so I had some time to clean them!

 

they wook mahvelous

I have black wheels on white at the moment and am in a mental gridlock

bought a silver set, thinking this is what I wanted but am second guessing
yours looks great

 

thanks - they were originally black when I bought the car. I was entertaining the idea of powder coating them a matte black, but the oem black was cheaper and it came out great.

 

Your car looks great. I too have a white .1 GT3 with silver stock wheels. I'm ready for a change but deciding between having the stock wheels powder coated satin black, satin charcoal or purchasing a set and keeping the stock silver just in case I later decide to sell the car. But again looking at yours I gotta make the change.

 

I am asking myself to do that or in gun metal, any one has them gun metal?

 

got mine in gloss black wet painted w/ pin carrara white

 

Any more pics of wheels with different finish on a white GT3?
