Very nice wheel and colour and a great choice on those tires!

I went a similar route except I use the OEM wheels for winter and the Forged One FF10's for summer.

I also went slightly larger on the rears as the RE980AS sidewall is not near as vertical as the Maxx Race 2 tires that came on my Spyder.

245/35R-20 Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS+ XL
305/30R-20 Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS+ XL

Here they are all mounted up and ready to head out!

I used to laugh when I saw people were paying for the upgraded gas cap. Then I got my car, with the stock plastic gas cap and thought, "Wow this looks/feels pretty chintzy...." I was gonna pony up and order the upgraded one from Suncoast... but then I saw it on a car on the lot - and it's just "aluminum look"? Still plastic? Weak.

Back only a couple of models the standard filler cap was even more generic and the Aluminum look upgrade certainly looks more the part, YMMV but to me it was worth the option cost.

^^^ I think that one looks better than the current upgraded one offered.

I can't believe it's $160 bucks but the stock one looks so bad.... I no longer laugh at those who do it. But I'm disappointed in the new offering.

The fact that this cap isn’t included on a six figure car infuriates me
