Actually, the Anthracite is much darker that Satin Platinum in real life. It is much closer to the Titanium color on the Boxster T wheels, but a tad lighter. I would say going with brushed clear is much more monochromatic to GT Silver, except they are shinier/more metallic.
My stock wheels aren't super clean but you get the idea 😆

I have -3 degrees of camber and I'm having rubbing issues with the 20" wheels on 255 tyres. It only happens when you turn the wheel full lock or close to full lock. now FAL can only be used when going straight. Slight turning will result in rubbing. I dont mind much as I will only use these wheels for track. But I was hoping I could fit a 265 tyre on 20" wheels. I dont see that happening now. Or maybe i have to tweek my alignment some more.

from my experience trying in different sets in different trims, the gt4/spyder seems like the wheels do sit a bit closer to fender than base to gts models. I believe that my be due the coilovers + bigger brakes on those cars so it seems everytime like if the same wheels will sit like 4-5mm wider than on the other cars.

You could possibly adjust caster fore or aft to pull the wheel/tire away from the side the tire is rubbing. This only works of course if it's only rubbing the front or rear not both and if you have some spare clearance on the adjacent side.

Satin Black on Black calipers is a good look, awesome spec Jevi. Sadly I have seen a few reports of rubbing with a 255/35-20 front tire from owners on stock wheels and ours which is why you only see OE sizes on the fitment guide for 20".

I'll check and report back

Ok so it rubs on the rear part of the fender liner + bottom aero bit of the fender liner. I have the 991.2 GT3 RS camber plates with no shims up front . Maybe I can add caster with shims and prevent rubbing. Will try this in the next couple of weeks.
