Talking Love my new Wheels!!!!

Although I like my Black wheels, I have always thought and still find the 997 Sport Wheels to be the Nicest looking OEM Wheels. Every time I see a 911 with them, especially white, I want them.

So to me I have the best of both worlds, I can switch them up every year or so, I might even use up the stock tires and put Michelin Alpin on the black ones and use them during the winter when no snow or salt is on the road.

Check them out-

It is Carrera White and yes I bought them used, but could not find a scratch on them.

I agree about the black, I have never really been a fan of black, but it grew on me. I do like the Sports better.

Is that a chrome strip on your Black wheels or a white stripe?

I have your black wheels in the regular "silver" color, but I actually like the black version of them.

I'd also love to see a full car picture, with the black wheels AND the new wheels.

I also have a Carrera White 911, 2009. Love it!
