Hi

As a part of me upgrading my GTS, wheels are one of them.

I am interested in the HRE https://www.hrewheels.com/wheels/ser...01-lightweight
The only issue is... what colour?

Would bronze be too much? This particular bronze; Satin Bronze


This is the car that got me thinking about the Satin Bronze. I am not sure which color this one has but it is close to Satin Bronze.



Besides that. These are colours that i am also considering

Brushed dark clear

Satin Charcoal

Satin Black


This is the colour; Satin Bronze


My GTS

 

First, good choice on the R101LW.

Satin bronze is a nice finish & would go well with your red car.

On the other hand, in my opinion satin bronze sometimes makes me feel it looks dirty. And I would get tired of the finish quick. Maybe glossy bronze would bring a bit of shine.

If you like brushed dark clear , here is my P101SC in that finish. I’m loving it , very easy to clean & hides dirt very well. Yes my coffee table is brushed dark clear as well lol

 

Ok that looks really cool. hmmmm it's such a hard decision haha. I originally was going for the satin black if not brushed dark clear but then I stumbled onto that orange 992.

 

Satin Bronze looks incredible against white and black. Against Carmine Red I think it would be mismatched.

+1 for BDC, it matches perfectly with your body color and there’s a depth to the finish which really stands out, but in a subtle way.

 

Do you think that Brushed dark clear on my car achieve a similar vibe of this GT3RS? Now I am leaning towards this finish haha.

 

I had a set of satin bronze Vossens on my white RS7 and loved them. However, when they got dirty, they looked REAL dirty. Bronze on red is good but that brushed dark clear on the GT3RS looks fantastic.

 

BDC against your car would look tremendous and still be harmonious against carmine red. It’s really tasteful, and your ceramic brakes would really pop against that background.

My GTS is GT silver, and the only reason I didn’t go full BDC is that I wanted some variation on my S101. I kept BDC on the lip and went satin charcoal on the face. Sorry, no mounted pics on my phone.

 

That’s exactly my thoughts , the satin bronze looks dirty fast!

Satin black would be a better choice if OP wants satin finish. But again I prefer gloss wheels lol

 

My long run project is to achieve the 2017 RSR looks/livery without a sponsor's name.

I am not sure if the Brushed Dark Clear would negatively affect the overall looks of the car with RSR livery or not since the OG RSR has matte black rims on.



something like this Cayman T. My tuner shop says he can do that but we haven't gotten into the detail yet. I wanted to complete the first phase of modding my GTS first --> HRE wheels, stage 2 ecu, sports cats, Michelin ps4s

 

The bronze would look beautiful on the dark red but because of the hue of Carmine Red, floss would be sooo much nicer than satin.

 

I went through this a few years back when purchasing my Hre wheels. I originally decided on satin bronze for my black 991s and loved them. Flash forward a few years and I decided I needed a new look for my car, so I sent them back to HRE to be refinished in brushed dark clear.

 

I have bronze on my night blue metallic - love it!

 

Which one is floss?

 

That combo always looks great. Subaru Impreza vibe.

 

I think he meant “gloss”
