Which TWS T66-F color looks best on this WRB BRZ with black aero (ignore the XXR wheels currently on it):

Attached are pics collected all over the internet. Things to note:

I prefer gold but the only thing stopping me is the Flat Gold finish might look cheap in person. The other two colors have a gloss finish.

Gloss Gunmetal seems to be the most popular color on WRB.

I see what you're sayin about gold...you prefer it, but afraid it might look cheap. If I were color coordinating my car, I'd look for that 3rd offset color. The vision for my car would be red/black/silver...or "chrome".

For yours, I see WRB/black aero /silver wheels. With gunmetal, I think your car presents a mildly dark look, but with silver, I think it defines the car better.

Andrew I personally say stick with gold.

Think going dark again will take away from your car. I could also see you pull off silver. It'll help highlight those small accents of silver/chrome you have.

Silver.

Gold is cool, but my hispanic friends would just say "What are you doing? You're white??" :lol:

Honestly though, if you want attention then go gold. If you want subtle and good looking, silver. If you want to hide the details of the wheel, then gunmetal.

I agree with Omar.I'd stick with gold I almost think it'd be weird to see your car back in the black stis now.

Custom orders like that require a minimum order of 20 wheels. :/

Yup, I inquired about ordering Gloss Gold as listed on that options page and got a reply saying a minimum of 20 wheel orders is required.

Edit: It's also noted toward the bottom of the page if you run it thru Google Translate.

No desire to powder coat your wheels the gold you want?

I see more value in keeping the paint original especially on more expensive wheels. :3

Just as a reminder, T66-F are also available in flat white, and gloss white ;) and i personaly would go with gloss white anytime !

TWS wheels are all available, upon request, in these colors:
