Pics of silver 996 with black wheels

They guys...I am hoping that some people can post some pics that have black wheels on a silver 996. I am planning on powder coating my 18" Carrera Classics black but not sure if I should go matte or semi gloss?

Red stripe would look good assuming the calipers are red as well...

These rims w/tires are for sale...PM if interested...

Thanks John, that's exactly what I'm looking for? Is that semi gloss or gloss black? How did you do the centercaps since my powdercoater said they cannot powdercoat since they are plastic, they will not go into the oven treatment.

I bought aluminum center caps and had them painted gloss black. The wheels are also painted gloss black. To do it over again - which I will soon - I'd go with powder coating. Def the right thing to do.

My -99 Polar Silver Carrera 2 with 18" Techart GT`s:




Just got the car back from service and got KW Variant 3 coilovers, H&R sway bars, GT3 seats, GT3 front control arms and steel brake liners installed
Some other mods installed earlier: GT3 aerokit, GT2 brakes, Techart exhaust, Tequipment shortshifter, Techart sound system etc...

EDIT: I think silver lip is a must on black wheels!
