Seen the colour in person, gorgeous, so congrats. It doesn't rate in the pics, a pain to photograph for sure.

Looks like a nice turnout with a bit of everything in attendance. Great to see Spyder Nation was well represented!

Anyone know how much a set of Silver Spyder wheels cost? I'm thinking about buying a set. That way I can get two different looks with my Spyder... One more agressive (Black Wheels) and one more classic (Silver Wheels). Here is a pic of the guy in SoCal with Fashion Grey and Silver Wheels... IMHO I love the look and the ability to change it when I want.

I don't know about a set, but when I asked my dealer for the cost of one wheel in the standard finish, I was quoted $1,752.40 before any discount.

Crap... Just called the dealer... $7700 for the set... Wheels only... No center caps or sensors included.

Seems crazy when you consider a set of GT4 wheels are only $5,700 at Suncoast. Not sure what it is about the Spyder wheel that commands such a premium.

I'm hopeful that once Suncoast and/or Wheel Enhancement start to sell the Spyder wheel, their prices will be more palatable.

Given the color of your car, I like your idea of getting a full set to change things up. Unfortunately, it's such a pricey proposition!

I know... I thought they would be at or below the GT4 wheel price from Sun Coast... Which I would be willing to do... But that is a $2k premium! Yikes!

It might be worth calling suncoast to determine availability and price. I've talked to one of their parts guys and they were extremely helpful on an order that I would consider fairly small.
