These aren't twists but perhaps the all polished look will help. I just took these off my car in favor of all black. I assume you are going twists to get a 17" wheel?
Here's a slate grey with twists (at least I think these are twists).

Look/search over in the 930/turbocharging forum. Someone posted a wheel thread a few months ago, and there was a picture or two of a car (930, obviously) with 18" Turbo twists. Personally, not a fan, but if you wind up liking it, go for it.

Ok, since you asked for opinions, here's mine. The O N L Y wheel for a '67 - '89 911 is a Fuch. Anything else doesn't look right. Track cars excepted.
