Thanks - Carbon Ceramic Brakes with run flats and tire monitoring too, if that matters

For my taste, it would depend on your color choice. I know you have been struggling with this, have you decided?

I am going with pure metallic silver exterior - There is a new polished wheel option but no modular wheel available from the factory.

The posts on broken wheels are somewhat alarming, but I am not deterred (yet)

That and the one with the slightly blue tinge are right now at the top of my list too. I think those colors scream for HRE 5 or 8 series 45 or 47 in shotpeen anodized black or powdercoated.

Btw, my 'current' plan, subject to change on a daily basis, is pure silver with charcoal interior and daytonas with red inserts and stitching.
