    Speed Yellow with black wheels?

    Seeing a brand new GT2 with black wheels I did a photoshop job to see if also on my GT3 they looks the same...

    Here the photo:


    What do you guys think?
    IMHO they looks good...

    Cheers

    I love black wheels but it depends on your own taste.
    I wouldn't paint them completely black, the slim outer ring of the rim should stay silver.

    I can understand why people like it, but I prefer normal ones, they look a bit camouflaged type for a prototype.

    mh, I like it.
    I consider to buy a second set of wheels that I would paint in black, à la "RS", with polished outter rim.
    Do you have a pic of a silver painted GT3 with black wheels ?

    I think it's pretty cool on cars with bright colors. I wouldn't like it on a black car (like mine) or even worse: a dark blue car.

    The TechArt Formulas look very good in black on SY. Sorry pic not SY, but you get the idea...

    great, silver with black painted wheels ... since my car comes by the end of the month, I will order a new set of wheels, and let them paint in black with the outter ring in polished aluminum. ....

    I like these wheels on GT3's...Almost 20lbs lighter on the whole than stock. You can get them painted black or anodized black...Kinesis K58

    I don't particularly like the look on photoshop picture of the GT3 but for sure it eases the cleaning burding for your wheels. The techArts look pretty sporty.
