Hi all. I have a 2014 C2S that came with the Carrera S wheels in silver - I'm contemplating swapping the silver wheels for black, ideally with a silver lip. I've seen two different variations on the black Carrera S wheels in photos online - (1) all black, and (2) black with a silver lip. Does anyone know if both options were available from the factory for the narrow body cars? And if so, are the spokes on the silver lip wheels shorter to allow for the contrasting lip? The easiest solution would be to refinish my wheels, but I'm concerned that the raised spokes extend too far into the outer lip for it to work. Below are two photos - the first shows my current wheels, and the second shows the look I'm going for.
2014 C2S here and I have the black with silver lip wheels. The silver and the black with silver lip wheels are the same wheel just in different colors. Visually the middle of the silver lip is at the very tip of the spoke. The black with silver lip only came in gloss black. What is interesting is the sliver lip part is not mentioned in my cars monroney build sheet. It just says 20 in Carrera S wheels and then Wheels painted gloss black. But no mention of the painted sliver lip or it’s lip color. These are my original wheels. And to my knowledge I have only ever seen them on a 2014 C2S. I have also seen gloss black silver lip sport classic wheels that came on the C4S and turbos. Also the silver lip part is also painted on the back side of the rim lip as well.
