GT Silver with black Techart 20"s

Here are a couple pictures of my 2006 997s with black Techart 20"s. I'm not sure the pictures do either the GT Silver Metallic paint or the black Techart's any justice. Intially, I was really afraid that I should have chosen the silver Techart's, but I thought the potential reward was well worth the risk. A special thanks for Arling from Lucent for enduring my constant questions during the decision making process. After having the wheels mounted today, I couldn't be happier with the color choice of both car and wheels.

i think some colors aren't really captured by camera well at all.
for example: gt silver atlas gray

Thanks for the compliments.

The color combination of the black Techart wheel and GT Silver 997 is truly awesome. I can't imagine a better choice. Pictures do the combination absolutely no justice.

I have ordered the Techart lowering springs from Arling, hopefully I will be able to post some updated pictures once it is lowered.

Awesome setup. What size tires can you fit with the TA 20's? Does it rub under full turn of the wheel?

The tire setup is as follows:

ContiSportContact2
front 245/30-20
rear 305/25-20

I have not encountered an rubbing whatsoever. The real test is what happens when I put the lowering springs on next week. From what I understand, I should not rub then either.
