914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Will Someone Photoshop My Wheels?

Posted by: Porsche Rescue Apr 6 2006, 06:38 PM

I have yellow centers on my track wheels and silver for street tires. Thinking street wheels might look better with black centers.
Can someone with more computer talent than me (that's almost anybody) turn them black? Centers only, I would leave the rim silver.

I like the yellow or polished (yellow looks really good).

I think the black looks bad.

Just my humble opinion.

But what do I know.

Thanks Andy.

Just showed my wife and she says silver. ( She asked what JP meant by "fuchin, does he have a spelling problem?" I told her it was a "wheel thing".)

I'm undecided. More opinions welcome.

those look good in Chris' black version.
Andy's version looks like it has some major curb rash!

The black looks pretty good.

The yellow looks pretty good too!

The silver looks the "least good" of the three. There just isn't enough other silver on the car to carry it. It's close - if the wheels had some kind of black background like Fuchs, it would be better.

The black base with the primary yellow accent color works well - introducing that much silver to the mix throws it off IMO.

If your gonna paint 'em, paint 'em yellow.

The yellow rocks.

I like the yellow too, but I prefer to have two different colors since I have two sets of wheels, track (yellow) and street. I am leaning to changing the silver to black since the car is all black and yellow. As mentioned above, there is no silver trim elsewhere on the car.

Are those 15" or 16" Revolutions? I ask because I have 15 x 6.5" RFX Revolutions with black centers and I sometimes think that the black center visually reduces the size or diameter of the wheel resulting in a smaller appearing wheel. At times I wish I had gone with silver centers.

That said, the photo-shopped black centers look good on your black car.

All of my Revolutions, yellow and silver, are 7x15.

door handles, window trim, hood latches, side mirrors.... all look silver to me

I like the silver better than the black.

Oops, good eye Gwen. I was only thinking about the black trim around the windshield and sail panel trim.
I like the silver too. Tough decision.
