Just bought a 996 C4 Coupe facelift, silver, and the alloys need a refurb (18" turbo style) due to corrosion & scrapes. Silver + silver = a bit boring (so I'm told...lol), and I've seen some tasty colour combos on GT3s, so I'm toying with the idea of having them sprayed black during refurb. Anyone done this, or got any pics??? Cheers!
Don't thnk I've ever seen the turbo twist wheels painted black. Personally I prefer a silver lip on black wheels, but of course that wouldn't work on these....
I have a black 996 with black rims...if you know how, I think you can edit the picture to make the car silver instead of black and that should show you what you are looking for...I would do it for you but I have no clue how, but I know it can be done...good luck!
My silver turb twists have my winter tires on them...
Here are some non turbo twists on my 993:

I agree with Ivan here.... you want pics, you have to post yours first....
Damned newbies think that they can just waltz in here and do as they please without so much as an introduction and posting a few pics.
Awe, you guys probably scared the little guy so badly that he will never post again! You guys need to be "kindler and gentler" to the Newbies, like I am! Come on Newbie, post up the !@#$%^&*% pics!
Looks like I can kill two birds with one stone, first post and pic's. Enjoy, Derik

Thanks guys! As a few of you may know, I usually hang out over at the 6. Wanted to see what all the hubb bubb was all about over here on the renn.
Thanks guys, especially Derik! I'll post some pics soon as I can combine dry weather, presence of digi-cam, and daylight (so sometime next century the way this summer's been here in the UK!) Just haven't had a chance to take any decent pictures since I've had it. If I still have them on my HDD, I'll add some of my 'true' 911 love...black Manthey tuned GT3 I owned a couple of years back Lol @ 'scared the little guy' (THAT'S a new one!) while I may be a Rennlist newbie, I'm a Porsche-addict and owned quite a few (with plans for plenty more!) so definitely not shy!

I was hoping you would get a laugh out of that. Welcome to Rennlist! Can't wait to see the pics.
My car is currently in the shop getting some PSS10's installed. I'll post up some new pics of the new stance in the next few days.

can you please provide details of your colored wheels?? did you paint them or are they powder coated. nice red stripe detail as well as the colored caps. i wish to do the exact same thing. i like the finish of your wheels alot, its not a flat color, but not glossy, a perfect finish imo. thanks..

Absolutely stunning.....
Not exactly what you requested but it's a silver car with black wheels nonetheless.....

Had the tires dismounted and took the wheels to my local premier body shop. They sent the wheels out to be sandblasted before prep. The wheels were then primered and painted a semi-gloss black. Then they called in a local pinstriper that matched the caliper paint just a tad darker for the stripe and center caps, all done by hand. All in all it cost me around $900 from start to finish and think they turned out great! I was told by the body shop that they did not recommend powder coating because of the heat process they go through in that it may somehow damage the aluminum. Cheers
thanks...they look fantastic!!

Not quite black but close. Custom colour paint job
