One more time....

I have photoshopped an image of what I would like my 996 to look like with 4 types of wheels: Techart Formulas, Formula GT, Sport Design, and Sport Techo all in 18". I currently have the Porsche Sport Designs and am about to put my order in for the Techart Formulas (silver) and just wanted to make sure I wasn't making a mistake. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Out of the four, I prefer the Sport Techno's on the silver car, but the Techarts are a very close second. I seriously like the painted aggressive look. I am considering doing that on my car. Nice look.

What I find weird about Technos was that they look really good in pictures, but in person they aren't as impressive.

Maybe it's just me.

Interesting!

I found it just the opposite...It was not until I saw them fitted to a vehicle that I really thought that they looked good.

Choices

I vote for the first one; my second choice would be the black centers.

They all look great. Nice Photoshopage too by the way!

I would pick the painted last just because you want to show off those expensive wheels and they just get lost in black.

Thanks for all the opinions and feedback! I have decided to take a chance with the TechArt Formula GTs. I really like the shape of the TechArts, and I figure if I regret going black I can always have them painted silver....

Thanks Again!
