We have had a number of customers send in photography of their GT4 or GT4RS on a set of our wheels. If you would like to see your car in the Wheel Gallery feel free to shoot us an email at expert@apexwheels.com with your wheel and tire setup. If you have an instagram account we can put your username in the photo credit section as well. This helps other owners get a sense of what their car would look like on a similar finish, diameter, or tire setup.

If anyone was curious how Apex’s anthracite compared to the Porsche’s Titanium gray. Also, factory center caps vs Etsy -

So, do they actually call it Titanium Gray or is that Platinum Gloss?

Likewise, another Apex Anthracite vs Porsche Titanium Gray picture.

Titanium Gray is an actual OEM Porsche wheel color. It is ever so slightly darker than Apex Antracite.

Don't have a side-by-side picture of Platinum Satin next to Titanium Gray, but can say the Titanium is slightly darker, if I recall correctly. To my eyes, it was the closest match, plus it is also a Gloss finish.

I should also add that 255/40/18 front with 275/40/18 rear fits with no rub when using front camber plates - even with Yoko A052s which run wide for size. Much closer to the stock diameter than the 255/35/18 and 275/35/18 combo listed on Apex fitment guide. Limited tire availability with A052, AD09, and Supercar 3 being the main 200TW options.

Do you have any more pics of the 18" wheels? That's what I'm leaning towards in the same colour.

Looks killer indeed. One of my favorite setups I've seen for a dedicated track GT4. This is Satin Black VS-5RS in 19x9"ET50 and 19x10.5"ET44 with Yokohama A005 Slicks in 260/660-19 and 300/690-19.

I just wanted to say that Brandon has been a huge help over at Apex for some tire questions I had. True enthusiasts there with a great product.

Thanks again!
