I am edging toward Otto Fuchs for my guards red 997.1 with factory aerokit. What are the thoughts on color choice?:

• black (leftmost on link below)
• silver spokes with black background (center in link)
• all silver (rightmost in link)

Silver on black seems to be 60s/70s old school, and all black is an 80s favorite. All silver wheels are the current trend in Porsche OEM wheels of various styles.

IMO, the left one is the best looking classic.

BTW, I come from (and still in) oil-cooled world, I've own those 3 combo colors (and more), and my favorite from experience is....................................... the left one.

 

+1 for the one on the left, black centers with a red exterior is a killer combo.

Oil-cooled world?

 

911-993 Porsches = Oil/Air-cooled. Yeah, I'm 50 and old. Hahahaha. But heck, been driving Pcars for decades.

 

I figured that's what you meant, I'm just used to seeing the phrase air-cooled or water-cooled. Never seen oil-cooled used standalone without reference to being air-cooled before. (BTW, I'm actually slightly older than you, not that it matters.)

 

The one on the left!!

Any votes other than black?

 

Yes, the middle one. Black with silver petals. I normally like the all black Fuchs, but on a Guards Red car the silver accents would look better.

 

Black is best, keeps the classic look.

 

Another vote for the all black ones.
