Maybe I’m weird (I’m ok with that), but I prefer non-black wheels. The problem with a black wheel and black tires is they just turn into a black blob with no separation. I think your silver wheels look fantastic. 🔥🤙🏻
If you really want to,keep the black wheels…try adding a yellow pinstripe around the lip. Just that little detail will make those wheels stand out so much more.
I’ll try dark silver next
I prefer the silver wheels. Every car seems to have all black wheels and it ends up looking like a black hole where you can’t see where the rim ends and tire starts
They grew on me
Before black or dark wheels became popular, I remember saying they would look so much better in my opinion. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to silver. Def not chrome. I like the black hole look. Looks meaner.
Have you ever think about putting the front view camera like the 997
I have the Continental DWS06+ on both of my Porsches, a 991.1 Turbo S and a 991.2 Carrera 4s and I run them year round in NJ and PA. Great tires. For those doubting the performance, in 37 degree weather my mildly modded (tune and exhaust) 991.1 Turbos S in 37 degree weather did a 1.61 60' time and consistently does 1.6 60' times and 2.6 0-60s in any weather on unprepped streets. Keep up the great reviews!
Haha silver looks good, but definitely agree with Jeff on the gunmetal.
Ever try the Michelin a/s 4+? But better grip in the dry than the dws. Although I’ve found the dws to be better in the snow.
I run the as4 on the tesla and love them!!
Bro, the problem with all season tires is at lower temps the rubber hardens. Reducing your traction and breaking distances, EVEN on clear pavement. It's a temperature issue, not a snow issue. Winter tires have a much softer compound that STAYS soft in cold temps. That's why you should have winter tires. Cheers
Nope. All seasons are amazing in all conditions. Been running them for years with zero issues. Great all around traction for everyday driving.
Awesome. I know up here in Canada, it's winter tires for me. Cheers@@TommyLGarage
Looks clean. I prefer the back but this pops
Thanks man!!
I experienced wheel skipping in front wheels at low turning, dealership blamed summer tires. 2021 911 i found bumping skip very off putting on such a vehicle. Sales rep recommended all seasons
I guess I’m onto something! :)
Love black and yellow
Thanks!
I totally agree with you. If you like a Porsche and own one but you don't drive aggressive than all weather tire is good choice. Relatively cheap to maintain and get rid of all that road noise well and they don't pick up and throw all road breed onto your paint!
Well said!
My favorite all seasons!
Wohoo !
I also prefer the silver wheels. The black wheels just blend in and make it look like a black hole in the wheel-well. With silver you can see the design and it makes the car look more expensive.
Glad I’m not the only one
Looks so so so much better than black wheels. I’d rock this setup year long if I could.
Hmmm tempting
Black wheels look good only on black cars ... 😆
Huge fan of the Conti's!!! I have a Mini Cooper S that I use them on. I will put snow tires on for the hard core winter months (living in Mass) because I'll drive it in just about anything. Otherwise, the Conti's are great outside of that. Even in the summer months, I get great grip in the wet and the dry. For my Porsche Cayman S, if I were to drive it in the winter, I'd use the Conti's on it!! I think the silver wheels for winter will make for a little variety, and still look good!!!
Silver grew on me a lot
prefer the silver but I think a anthracite or gray would look amazing
Agreed
Tommy I think the silver looks great. Gives it a nice pop against the yellow
I think so too. Thanks!
I much prefer the look of the silver wheels. They add more definition and contrast to the overall look of the car. I'd rock them all year, personally.
I may do that actually
Go full T delete, get rid of the stripe :)
Too late. Ppf over it !
Ill trade him my base exhaust.
Funny, I was just considering the black set of OEM wheels on my black 991.2 C4S for that black-on-black look.
Go silver !!
The DWS06+ are my go to all seasons. We're almost running the same sizes ex cent I have a peasant 2018 340i M Sport. I'm running 245/35 20s in front and 285/30 20s for the rear. Two tone gray and darker gray would also look nice, like gunmetal.
Did you notice the rear with the Contis makes the diameter look smaller than with the darker wheel and the Michelins. Maybe it's just the lighting hitting the shoulder of the tire.
You’re spot on with making them look smaller. I kind of wish I had gone with 315 rear
I’ve used DWS tires, they work well
Good to hear!
I spent a lot of money for a set of snow tires and wheels. I wish I had thought about all season tires because I never drive my 991 in the snow. Not only I wasted money, I hate having to swap wheels every winter.
Yup!!
I like the Silver wheels MUCH more than the black ones...
You and everyone else in the comments. Makes me think I should repaint my summer setup
Great choice with the conti’s. They are an excellent performing tire in cold weather and great value.
I probably would have chosen gray wheels like the T comes standard with, but still looks good regardless 👍🏼
Maybe gunmetal gray?
I just got Michelin PS A/S 4’s to take my G80 snowboarding in Tahoe
Oh they’ll be amazing
MASSIVE fan of the DWS06! I ran them on my E46 M3 and my 435i in the snow. For an all season they are definitely capable. My P car will not get the same treatment.. She's going into hibernation..LOL
Drive her year round !!
@@TommyLGarage GT cars don’t like snow! 😂
Silver looks so much better. To your point, gives it a more exotic look
Glad we agree!
I don’t have personal experience with it, but others I’ve met have mentioned that AP calipers and hardware have virtually no corrosion resistance to salt water and salted roads. Just food for thought if they salt the roads in your area.
Oh man. I plan on driving it in the winter.
Black for sure.
Silver !!
I like the silver wheels.
Me too!
gunmetal will be nice and clean. And work with the whole color theme of this car
It’s a super nice example. Carrera T ☝🏼👏🏼🎶🍾🎶
Thank you!!!
Gunmetal is the way to go just like mine
Agreed!
Gasp. How dareth thee don the all seasons.
No big deal
Gun metal grey would look great, suggestion: use the Porsche configurator to see what it would look on yellow car
Titanium grey ( not gun metal grey)
Wow good idea on the configurator !!
Go with silver in the front and black in the rear! 👍😉🍻
Now we’re talking !!
Supposedly a real winter compound performs better than all seasons under 45 or so. The issue for me is tread instability they just feel squirmy. Still even on cold dry roads you are better off with real winter tires.
Agreed. Squirmy is a good word
Black all day…. Such a meaner look. Silver looks too tame to me. I don’t think I can go back. For this car, the only color that works is black but yea you should do something different over winter. My goal on my g80 order is to get rid of any silver whatsoever. Everything dark and stealth.
And I have to say, I appreciate you driving these cars in all seasons. My father had a 911 that was his only car. And I mean that in the sense it was his car in Arizona and when we moved to the Philly area, he didn’t care… he was driving the same 911-snow, sleet and all.
Dark silver maybe will be my next color
The agate gray STD equip carrera T wheels vs silver IMO would look better Tommy
Agreed
I totally agree! I wish they would make them in 285 sizes :) I would use them on my OEM wheels for my GTR but! I can get them for my audi rs4 :) added to my bucket list! :) - this is your winter setup/ why worried 🙂
Michelin as4 are great too. Try them out!
@@TommyLGarage yep $1300 bucks, and I can have 2 set of wheels... my winter tires are from 2014/16 so pretty old thread and probably super hard by now, AS4s probably would perform even better in snow...I just hate parking my cars over winter. they need to be driven at least ones a week! :)
Looks good Tomek 🔥 Pozdro
Pozdro!!
It's not about being a Porsche purist or not, I am not one. But as a 991 owner and having other cars, I know all season tires just do not perform well in ANY condition, they suck in the summer and they suck in the winter (and you don't need snow, it's about rubber temperature vs. their "softness" and their adhesion capabilities, it's physics). And this is true on any car. Now on a 911, having all season tires feels just inappropriate imho. It does not perform, period. Plus if the 911 is equipped with rear axle steering, the tires must be compliant, none are in the all-season category. 911 means summer tires and winter tires. This purist thing is not accurate, it's just safety basics and you are wrong with your snow theory, you don't need snow to justify winter tires, it's about surface temperature. Now that I got my 2 cents out of my system (sorry), I wanted to say I love your channel and I am enjoying your videos, keep it up! And nice Carrera T! Greetings from the west coast! 🙂
You just put me though a lot of emotions haha. But at the end I agree. No rear axle steer for me. And I’m super happy with these tires’ winter performance. So far so good!
i generally hate black wheels as you can’t make out the design. In that case, why even bother picking a design as you won’t see it anyways, just darkness. I have a Tesla Model 3 Performance with the black 20” Ubers. Ditching those for a set of 19” bright silver OEM Sport wheels. Look way better with red calipers with the blue paint of the car. With the black wheels, it sometimes appears my wheels were stolen of the car as you can’t see them. BTW, I love your Carrera T. I plan on getting one soon and yellow looks really good! An NSX owner but that I will never sell for any other car. That stays with me.
Same here. The T will never be sold
Gray would have been cool. Silver is fine for winter…if you have to keep them.
I’ll repaint my black ones to gunmetal
Ditch the black 911 carrera T stickers from the side of the car
Too late. I’ve got ppf over it
I think the silver wheels look better… Powder coat them gray and that’s best in class.
You’re right !
Love the silver on the yellow. But the wheels need to be a tiny bit bigger. I agree with the stripe. With black wheels you lose the design. Some silver aftermarket wheels 👀👀🥵
I prefer to keep things oem
Hack: use a summer, fall, winter, and spring tire at the same time and just rotate every 3 months. Boom - all season tires
Hahaha smart
Did you once live in Luxemburg? Or why is that GTI plated with an L license plate?
That was when I went to Germany and rented a GTI at the Nurburgring
hey Tommy, ur videos are great as always, im a long time SUB even bought mudflaps fo my F80, BUT whats up with the DUNKS and PUMA sweats? lol. Get some nike sweats to complimentent those clean dunks brethren
Hahah thanks man. I honestly didn’t even notice they were puma. They looked good at Marshall and were only $14.99 so I bought them !
It is a serious sports car, so why compromise. I have a nice daily driver for when the weather does not cooperate.
I like to daily it
@@TommyLGarage I guess you do not get a lot of snow or ice? And if you did, that takes the fun of driving a Porsche which is meant for performance...accelerating, braking, curves, etc.
@@a.c.e.7568 we do. And I don’t like to drive the car at the limit every day.
Definitely paint them grey - check out the 718 Cayman T wheel color
Dark gray. Doesn’t match with yellow
@@TommyLGarage Does on my Racing Yellow 718 Cayman T ;)
I feel like the carrera t decal on side of car ruins the clean lines of the body. But that’s just me. Plus 1 for the silver wheels
I agree but I now have ppf over it :(
so how did you like the tires? I am thinking of this same tire but my climate is only "cold" for about a month out of the year. I live in texas. and will be replacing my 991.1 C2S tires soon. I don't track the car.
Love it!! Zero issues
Man, this looks so much better than on black rims. I can understand gray and variations of it but black rims looks always awful...
Hhmmm I kind of like black
@@TommyLGarage
I get it. In my opinion black wheels always look bad but it's Your car :)
Great video, as usual. I’m getting this tire set up as well, how’s the noise level so far? Very curious, thank you,
Thanks! Zero noise level and they feel super smooth. No regrets at all.
Have you ever try to retrofit to the original PCM at front view camera.
Haven’t tried it
@@TommyLGarage
Thank you very much for your response. I know you are really tech savvy and mechanically inclined and that’s why I was wondering because I saw it done in a 991. It was done with your original radio but they had multiple modules. If you want here’s the parts that other people use.
NAV TV PCM 3.1XG
HCE-212F (front camera)
The only drawback is the hardware is around $700 without the camera. Thanks once again for your response.
Is it now on eibach springs? How is the ride?
Yes. It’s great. Almost as good as stock. Zero regrets.
Silver looks better!!
Agreed!
I’m from Basking Ridge. Where do you track? Usually I go to NJMP, but looking for other options.
NJMP, Lime Rock, VIR
Only gun metal it is the best colar.
Not a bad color
All seasons tires, are medium in all season, but not optimized for dry road and not for the snow. Its a economic choice...on short time in fact. For a sport car, take the best in tires, it's the last contact before the road... Don't tell us you have not enought money or place for have tires for each seasons? 😁
I prefer these in the winter. I don’t drive in the snow a lot. But for cold weather these are amazing
black or gunmetal
Gunmetal !
Hey! I’ve got a 2014 cayenne GTS, looking to put the 991.2 type steering wheel on like you did for your cayman.. no multi function, that doable? Any help on where to buy one is appreciated, thank you!!!
Hey. It will be the same procedure as the cayman. Easy to do.
Thanks Tommy! Any steering wheel will do whether it 911, Macan, cayenne etc.? 2016 to 2020
@@colegibson6536 yes they’re all the same
I know removing the carrera t decal would make it look base but I think it would look better. Tint the front windshield and maybe the headlights. Nothing a little photoshop can confirm without committing.
Too late. I have ppf over the decal
Seriously… silver wheels look massively better than black. Cars with black rims always look like they got their rims jacked and car is just floating on big black voids… IOW, looks like trash and completely played out.
Haha you’re right
Hej Tommy, nie dałoby się wrzucać filmików w rodzimym języku, Twój kanał PL zdechł totalnie.

I think you should go get your F80 back.. Fucc dat weak ass car..
How come ?
