my plan is to use the factory PP wheels for the winter, then switch to new wheels for the summer with the original summer tires. Maybe TSW Nurburgrings in matte gunmetal or something similar, Still got a while to decide on that one. who knows, maybe by then the factory wheels will have grown on me, but I doubt it.

I'm not happy with the GTPP wheels either. I like the spoke pattern but am not a fan of black wheels on darker exterior paint colors (Black, Guard, DIB, Magnetic, Kona Blue).

Hopefully someone will put out a square or staggered 18" wheel set that will jettison some of the OEM weight and still fit over the 6 piston calipers with a minimum 275 width tire. The HRE FF15 looks promising but they haven't published the widths and offsets for the 18" version yet.

The darker bronze and IPA colors seem to go well with DIB and that is probably what I'll end up with. An 18" wheel lets you use a 45 ratio tire which should help protect the wheels from potholes and absorb road hazards better.

In my opinion, 20" wheels with 30 or 35 ratio tires are too heavy and prone to road damage. They do look nice though.

I am going back and forth with my decision pertaining the black wheels, but mines on the ingot silver. I am really thinking i might go Matte Graphite over silver, to pull more of the black accents and window tinting. Who knows, still a hard choice.

Square 20" setup with INVOs most likely. Want to be able to rotate em plus a better selection of tires in 20" over the GT PP wheels.

pp rears are a little wide for snow tires, no? Ideally you go with a narrower tire for the snow. Though, obviously you could you could go factory widths for winter tires. Not sure about a staggered setup for winter tires - going to cost you more in the long run not being able to rotate them.

Might be better off selling the PP wheels and buying four 8.5" wide wheels for winter and throw some 245s on all of them. Probably come out ahead of the game money-wise.

Keeping factory look. I love my 20 inch rims!

Optional 19" Factory. Best looking rims. Saw them in person over the weekend. Just perfect for the car.

I think the black wheels look bad on Ingot but that's just my opinion (seems like a black void).

I think silver or the 19" gunmetal optional ones look awesome with the Ingot.

And wait till spring. Hopefully there will be more choices as it is right now most of the wheels are too narrow for me.
