Can anyone post pics of Arctic Silver (preferably coupe) with Carrera Sport wheels (NOT Carrera Design) ? Would like to see how Arctic Silver goes with the GT Silver of the Carrera Sport wheels. Thanks.

Here's my car on the Tail of the Dragon. I wasn't 100% sure I'd like the contrast between the GT Silver of the Carrera Sport wheels and the Arctic Silver of the rest of the car. Since I wasn't able to see a car in real life or find decent pictures with this combo, I took the plunge blindly, as I really didn't love any of the wheel options besides the Carrera Sport (the new Carrera S wheels just dont do it for me). As it turns out, I really like the combo a lot. The GT Silver of the wheels is really rich, and the slight contrast between the two, though subtle, is definitly noticable and actually looks great.

Thanks so much for posting. Any chance of a full sideview in bright sunlight. Thanks again. Your car is BEAUTIFUL. I just think that silver is the best color for a Porsche !

I believe this is GT silver but not positive. It may be seal grey. This pretty much put me over the top with those wheels. Keep in mind that the Carrera Sports are the widest wheels (OEM) available for the 997. As an old 911 driver,--more is always better!

Well, I can't find any in full sunlight in my photo album, and I live in Seattle. And it's February. So chances of a sunny day anytime soon are remote. But I'll try to get one the next reasonably nice day.....

That is seal grey. I have the same car same wheels.

As per your request; although, a Cabrio version. Indeed, of all the OEM wheels these are the sweetest.

Thanks for sharing your cab pics; looks great! I have an Artic Silver cab like yours, and always wondered what the all red tail lights, Sport wheels, and Sport Exhaust would look like on my car.

looks good - i am thinking of getting those on a white cab.

This is Artic silver with the BBS RS GT wheels in their diamond Black finish. These are forged wheels and thus lighter than the OEM Porsche cast wheels.

Classics are the best.

On the hunt for a set of Carrera Sports. Anyone know of a set for sale please let me know.

Are you looking for OEM or replicas. Here are some replicas on ebay. I have no direct knowledge about the quality of the wheels or the seller, and have no affiliation, direct or indirect with the seller, YMMV, yada, yada, yada.
