I had a set of the standard, lightweight turbo twist rims on my car - and they looked great with the color (Meridian Metallic) of the car itself. But I just got 2 more sets of rims ... one for driving around town (the tops pics in the link below), and a custom painted set of BLACK TURBO TWIST wheels on Pirelli P-Zero's (the pics near the bottom of the page below). We have a track day on 6/5 and I thought these would look pretty cool on the track.

Thoughts? It definitely gives the 996TT a very aggressive look.

Fugly...IMO.

 

they would be ok for track wheels

 

TOM KERR - thanks, that's what I was thinking also ... just for TRACK wheels. The black looks very aggressive for that purpose.

I think the look below is the best look for the city, etc:

Did you see the GT2 with RED wheels? I thought that looked odd when the car was sitting, but it looks sick on the track. It's the 3rd car on this page:

Some yellow calipers will make those all better!

 

well I have to admit I also have a set of cup tires on speed yellow turbo twists!!!!
Get that car to the track!!!!

 

Those wouldn't happen to be GT2 size wheels would they?

I like the black turbo rims. But would add a little color to set them off. Maybe a silver stripe or red stripe on the outer lip.

 

I actually like them on silver. Have you seen andreas' techart in black on the black turbo. Looks awesome.

 

What size tires are on the rear? They look like 295's but are a little streched.
Are the wheels 12" wide?

I love black wheels, but those are almost too black.

Those look awesome.

 

Huge fan of powder coated black wheels i love them, for all purposes.

Lol also, first pic i looked at was a side pic, didnt notice the wheels werent installed and it looked wierd as hell.

 

I just did my stock turbo twist's in gloss black also, it honestly looks aggressive but amazing on it, it iwll probably be my track set cause i have 19's coming, but i dont see why they couldnt be used for daily or street use, unless a flat primered look black?!

 

ZONA ... yes, 295's on the back. I may test a 305 soon. The width is right at 12.5".

These TT rims are flat black. I thought about having some silver tone / small detailing put in somewhere ... not sure what though. I leaving for AZ tomorrow and then putting them on the car next Sunday for our track day on Monday 6/5. We'll have some great pics and good in-car video on display soon.

Have a good weekend all. Thanks for your input.
