Don't do it. The car is beautiful. Not a fan of painted wheels, unless you hanging with P diddy or hoping to be on pimp my ride. Leave it alone. Want black wheels, don't wash em.....I know ceramics don't have that much brake dust

I say do it. You can always buy new rims if you don't like them.

by the way Hah, I am starting to feel that Red could possibly be the superior colour on the CGT...especially with black wheels---no color accent

Don't do it... The car is beautiful how it is, theres no need to paint the wheels. I am a fan of black wheels, but it just doesn't look right on this car.

Just my 2 cents.



- Oh yea, great choice on getting your CGT in Gaurds Red... It's my favorite Porsche color.

i second that chris.

the red looks stunning for CGT. i'd say it looks better than most of the GT colors including the famous silver. it just grabs eyes hard!

I was surprised when I first opened it and realized it was a CGT. I was stunned how cool it looked, red stripe in particular. I love it.

Hah, I posted my opinion earlier but I keep coming back to this thread and looking at the P-shop you posted... I changed my mind... Those wheels would look perfect on your car!

Your CGT looks amazing how it is, but I think it would look even more amazing if you painted the wheels like that!

If I could change my vote, I would... PAINT THE WHEELS!!

Red is very nice on that car, but who was the guy that just got he white one. That was the best looking CGT I've seen

I would do it. I think the CGT is all the car but I think its cool to do something alittle different. I just sold my silver one to get Red I can't wait. The silver got played out.
