The wheel is two tone paint (just had some curb rash fixed..) with clearcoat. It's "special"..
The Michelin Latitudes I replaced recently on mine had about 20,000 miles and they were close to done. Could have gotten another 5,000 from the rears (they had been replaced during the CPO inspection), but fronts were close to the wear bars.
Put on the Conti Extreme Contact DWS's - and the result is a MUCH better ride quality with no loss in handling. Win/Win. And I've heard the mileage from them isn't bad (I'm fairly easy on brakes and tires..) Plus they cost a bunch less then the Michelins. Only thing is - they aren't "Porsche Approved" (N-rated).. and they are basically a street tire (all-season - but I also have dedicated snows/rims.) They do have the correct speed and load rating for the truck.

i only got like 15 from my Pirelli Scorpions that came with the car. I advise a summer and winter tire as the Scorpions just didn't like summer driving.
The inside of the rims (spokes if you will) is color matched to the titanium trim.

Edward,
Dunno how much clearer I can make it (but I'll try..) - it's a TWO TONE paint job. The outer rim/lip is painted silver, the spokes and center are painted Titanium. This is all covered by a coat of clearcoat.
