Have you considered painting the lip of the wheelas well? I think that would complete the look and would look quite nice on your Cayman. The red calipers would really be highlighted too.

The black looks pretty sweet. Consider painting the rim red?

I like the Stock better than the black. But I have to say, boy do I love the Cayman in Red. I never like red, but this Car, WOW.

RR - black is cool, but those aren't the wheels for it. Perhaps the rims need to be black also?

RedRocket you're talking about your 20" RH wheels right, not the 18" Cayman standard wheels? I think you're wheels would look really good with the spokes and hub in black and the studs left in silver.

Black wheels would look great with black hub caps with the gold crest inlaid.
