With my build and standard wheels, I've gone from LED PDLS Black -> LED PDLS -> HID PDLS -> LED PDLS.
My SE will be happy when it locks.

Here's a little know secret - the car will drive and handle the same. It will also look the same from inside.
Buy what you want.

Frank, your car is perfect. Love the LEDs, have them now in black. They are superior in every way, and would get them without hesitation with only exception of going after a more classic look.

We need base wheel and satin aluminum wheels side-by-side comparison. Would swear your wheels are satin. Visited four dealers, all with multiple GT3s awaiting delivery, none with any wheels other than black and platinum satin.

I like SBM with platinum wheels. I think I would then go with the $700 light option because I think slightly darker

Check out the image gallery - that car was spec'd with Black LED

Thanks for the link. The same website also has a SBM Touring: https://www.caranddriver.com/photo-g...info-gallery#2
The Touring seems to come with the standard wheels and standard Xenons. In the end either one will be fine. I'll stick to Platinum.

I see what you mean, but not wanting to go any darker. I also don't want to revisit any of my other choices. Don't want to be in the situation described by 1Gunner above
