    Black wheels - pics and suggestions please!

    so my TT is in the paint shop finishing production tomorrow!! yeah!! so now its time to think about wheels. My TT is Carrara White w/ Black interior. I am definitely going with black wheels. Most likely 19's but am also considering 20's as this is going to be a weekend only cruiser (stock wheels will go back on for track days!) the only ones that I am currently considering are the Techart Formula GT or GTS. thanks guys!!

    I too have a white/blk car coming and thought the TA GTS black wheels were awsome, however they are really heavy and I'm told will affect how the car handles. I was thinking of going with HRE 542's. Whatcha think?

    I dunno... I think the Techarts are a little too curve-y for our cars. Like they are competing a bit too much for attention with the body of the car... .

    Anyway just IMO..., here's a pic:

    They sure do look like 20s; I don't know for a fact (not my car/wheels). Brakes might be non-Porsche, so it's hard to tell.

    Look at the Dymag on "pictures I promised" tread: they look gorgeous, and are also lighter than stock!
