GT3 ordering question

on the order guide, there is a option code XD9 - Rims and caps painted exterior color.

does anyone know or have pics of the wheel (GT3 wheel) painted from factory??

is it just painted spoke or the entire wheel?

TIA

That option is only needed if you order wheels painted from factory....Basically it is so that your center caps are also painted...
I say best example of painted GT3 wheel would be GT3 RS (both blue and red)

From the pics I have seen of the option, the full wheel is painted on the GT3 although other style wheels I have seen with the option only had the wheel center painted and not the lip.

I would think it's the wheel center painted to match the exterior. Probably painted the way they do for the GT3RS wheels, but in your exterior color.

Based on what I have seen in pics they arent painted like the RS.

arling,

the only painted factory wheels i've seen were black on a gt2, the entire wheel was painted, and i find the look very unattractive, but everyone is different when looks are invloved.

a seal car looks great with stock wheel, why not get the kinesis like chris did?

The factory painted wheels on the Turbo and GT2 I have seen in person and the center of the wheel was painted and the lip was silver.
