Wink Mod for your Stock 997 TT Wheel

My stock wheels were just laying around and I wanted them to have the painted inserts, At the time of order the Exclusive option was 1400.00

Porsche does not have the wheel inside dish in black or the lug barrels in black either.

I sent them to WheelsAmercia.com for paint and polish

I had the Spokes done in Carrara white , The lug barrells in Satin black and the inside of the wheel also finshed in satin black with a complete clear coat on the entire wheel assy

Cost 117.00 per wheel

There was a small nick from a tire installer and the cleaned that up for free

3 day turn time

I hope this info helps others...

Gee-Bee

Interesting conception - alternate color face to barrel.
I wanted the wheels painted the same way you did yours, but ALL in black, to match all the paint-options on the exterior. However ... they won't paint the barrels at the factory - worse yet, leave them primer-gray (as if that's a good look!?!). So I took them 'stock color' and decided to do a custom rim. (PRAISE: your's look friggin' great with white exterior). I may follow your idea, but go with all black.
Good post with all the right details, who and how much.
Thanks!
