Those are sick rims. In fact, the Gemballa 997 is, in my opinion, the sickest 997 I've seen so far (not the one above; the one that was floating around here last month; you know what I'm talking about)

These rims also come with black centers.....oh yeah....check'em out.

Didn't see any mention of price though.

Judge,
Hey your honor dude. Powder coating is also an option. Many shades of black, dull to gloss black. Holds up to the elements very well.

Dr. Lovebug,

Im gonna hold off on painting. Because i am not planning on lowering the car, I have a feeling the black rims will look horrible. I saw a picture at wheel enhancement and it looked rather awful. The guy there stated that most people who paint the lobsters end up regretting the decision.

I just checked the price of both the Gemballa racings and the Sport Technic pictured below.

Gemballa - $5600
Sport Technic -$3700

The gemballas are also significantly heavier coming in at about 30 pounds for the rears and 24 for the fronts. Whereas the Sport technics weigh under 20 pounds each. However, I am not confident in the manufacturer.
