Oh Wow, I love the Green GTS, the wheels not so much.

Thumbs up

I really like it , the wheels are pretty cool I think, the overall look is neat, not too over the top yet aggressive enough with some details like the spokes of the rims going to edge of lip , front spoiler deeper but understated and the colour combo seems to work, I dig it!

Love the whole look.

Is the copper spoked section actually part of the wheel that provides support or is it a removable "cover" with black support arms further in the wheel where the gold lip is?
Got any close up pics of the wheels?

Looks like a Forgiato wheel. Definately not "covers". Probably about $1K a piece. Car looks awesome, can't believe it's over 15 years old

You should put Kato on the "Where's the 928 pictures post". It's cool.

I think they are disposable rims, so when the tires wear out, you just throw it all away

I agree, throw these pics on the Pictures Thread.

Forgiato Maglia M, looks like they cnc the wheels from billet, and those spokes really are raised from the face of the wheel, crazy.

I personally want to find a nice rim design that is all black but there is a bronze ring around it. Either on the inside or outside. I have always thought that bronze looks good on black cars but think this would look really nice and not be too over the top.
