Yes, colour keying your wheels is utterly ridiculous.

No, no, no. Don't forget to go spare, when some chav decides he doesn't like the colour.

Taking my car in on Friday to Lepsons for exactly that. Cost £80 per wheel + VAT.
(They were recommended by OPCs East London and Hatfield - although who knows what that means...)

I think wheel centres painted something other than silver can work but it depends on the colours involved.

I see you have a black 996TT. I think the black centres will work but at £80 per wheel I think this is expensive.
