The wheel came out great, thanks for asking. Proformance does an amazing job refinishing and powder coating wheels! The only issue I had was that the dark grey color I chose for the wheels came out too dark! With the new tint, the car looked "murdered out"...not the look I was going for. I'm taking the wheels in on Monday for a lighter color! Otherwise, everything came out great. I'll post a pic later

Hi Nick, here's the car with the tint and grey wheels (the grey wheels are so dark they look black though!)...What do you think? I plan on changing it up on Monday.

Looking forward to the pics. We should set another get together soon. We had a blast on the last one.

I think it looks fantastic! Of course I now love black rims on a black Porsche. Before I got my black rims I wasn't a fan, but now I like them. It's all personal preference and yes grey wheels would look great as well.

I don't think the dark looks bad but I really actually liked your car with the silver wheels. With the lighter taillights I think the lighter wheels complemented your car better. it was a really clean look. With black cars in general I think either light wheels look good or black. Anything in between just doesn't do it for me personally.
