Hey everyone,

Prepping the car for new track season, thinking of picking a new color for track OZ Wheels. Any recommendations ? Gold, Red, Orange ? Other ?
Also thinking of spicing it up porsche style graphics, tacky or ok for track only ?
Would really appreciate if someone could photoshop some colors actually. I'm horrible at those things. Thanks.

Graphics,

You mean the wheels or the graphics ? I'll look them up.

I've had orange track wheels for a number of years. Some pics on here someplace.

Great colors. I originally thought about porsche 80k rs red but after seing a small touch up paint I thought it was a little too orange so decided to go with toyota red. Looked really bright being a non-metallic color. Will see tue color on the wheels tomorrow.
Thanks for the input guys.

I've always thought that a mint/teal/tiffany blue might work really well on a SG CSL as a set of track wheels...

Sort of like these...

That looks awesome. Wish I saw them earlier. Although after a few laps of brake dust, those could look very dirty where red might hold it a touch better. I think.

Thanks.

I don't know the name of the color, I got the pictures for a few years on my phone and always love the look of it.
(maybe someone else knows?.)

That looks very very nice although I might pass on the lettering. Thanks for those pictures. I'll take them to my graphics guy.:thumbs:
The wheels are painted btw,

It looks a little too orange in the shots but they are actually bright red.

Got the wheels back and already mounted the cups on them and added a little boyracer touch with raised tyre letters :) I really liked the complete look. Can't wait to see them on the car with side graphics.

Nope, I later thought it could be a little too much. Sticked with bronze/gunmetal wheels and tire letters.
