Pictures with silver rims

Hi,

since i dont like black rims und the GR86 allways comes with black or dark rims, if feel the car looks worse than te GT86.

I searched the whole internet for pictures with silver rims, but i didnt find many.

Maybe you guys allready have some?

My prefered color is red.
i'm also curious to see pictures with stock 2012 rims on the new model.

I have the same feelings, loathe black wheels. I played around a little with it in Gran Turismo Sport. When GT7 comes out next month I'm hoping there will be more/better wheel options to mess with.

I was thinking to get the factory rims refinished in silver but they've grown on me a bit (I do not have the car yet, ordered a red MT premium.) I'll live with them a while and see how I like them.

You might end up seeing some of the 1st gen wheels in use as a snow set. I personally highly dislike those wheels.

I don’t have a single wheel I really like on this car, but this is part of the way to what I had in mind for black:

Fredzy,

Do you think you could please post more pictures from GTS? I posted a thread earlier trying to decide between bronze, silver, and gloss black.

What's nice about GTS is you can lower the car and slap some 18 inch rims on.

If you can please post some pics with these three colors with a rim that looks like the Enkei TSV, on a red GR86? It would really help me out.

Thanks, Omer

Haha, I can barely get a chance to play when I want to so I definitely can't promise anything. But if I do get on there I'll do it. I don't think that wheel is in there, should be something similar looking though.

Also, I could just cut to the chase and recommend silver more factory looking, always best

The new OEM rims actually don't look too bad in silver. I wish this multi-year long fad for black rims would end. A sportscar needs bright rims, and silver is best of all. Classic, provides nice contrast with the tyres and wheel wells, and never goes completely out of style.
