Help me decide pls

  1. leave as is (matte black with red strip)
  2. silver
  3. shade of gray (anthracite, charcoal, etc)
  4. gloss black with polished edge
So I have finally decided to use this set of wheels (sitting in garage for the last 2 years). I will have them professionally refinished but need your opinions on which one best suits my arctic silver car. Thanks in advance.

That would be nice too, but the ones I have on the car right now already have color match centers (at least close to). Thanks.

Thanks. I actually saw this on a very similar (almost identical) car.

I would leave the Rennworx "as is" or maybe do a gloss black (since your Work wheels are already silver). I can't believe you had the RSL's sitting in your garage, I would love to own a set!

The streets of L.A. are too mean for these lightweight wheels. Had them on before, then changed to the silver "clean" look. But now I want those Rennworx back on my car. I was told they are limited. I saw another one in an issue of European Car Magazine.

I believe Bill's were anodized blue, how about anodized red? Regarding the EC project 996- Was that the one they did a mk 2 conversion on? If so, that turned out really nice!

Yes, it was Brembo, GMG & Rennworx Upgrades - Project Carrera GT3. Anodized red might be too "loud" for my taste . Thanks for the idea though. You never know one crazy day I might just try it
