I was wondering if you guys can help me out. I'm planning on purchasing the GT-s but I can't figure out what the color name is. Heres a picture of the color I plan on purchasing.

Ive contacted both f1 motorsports and status and they both told me it's titanium gunmetal. So fine, it's titanium gunmetal then. So i ask for another pic of the same color and status sends me this:

now unless i'm blind, they are two completely different colors but status claims that the 2nd pic is titanium gunmetal as well. The first one is way darker.. the 2nd one almost looks like a silver. Neither has yet to reply to my PM about this so I figured they're just too busy. If any of you have already purchased your set, please help me out i really want to get the darker finish.

 

hard to say. lighting plays a huge role in how things look.

best to go see the wheel person. you're spending $2000+ for wheels

 

sadly, i think you're right. I was very excited about the darker finish.. it just looks perfect. But if it looks like the 2nd pic in the daylight.. then i'm going to have to pass..

 

the pix you see in both link is Ti Gunmetal, its all about the lighting..
here's a pix of the GTS front top to bottom Ti Gunmetal, RBC & Mercury Silver and other wheels new color... Flat Black GTV


This is a pix of the Ti Gunmetal GTS on a NSX

 

oh gawd, my TIgunmetal GTS come in THis WEEKEND! HOpefully!! if it looks half as sick as it does on the nsx, i'll be happy.

 

depend on the offest you got.. but if you got an aggressive offer the rear lip is the same as the nsx...

 

Looks like Mercury Silver to me.

 

it does huh? The gunmetal for volk is usually darker but I guess its a new finish.

 

Yup, I did. I got +17 offset all around ,9.5 and 10.5

 

got mine as well +17 front + 18 rear

 

The 2nd pic you posted (from Status) looks more like the Mercury Silver rather than the Ti Gunmetal. The 1st pic looks more like what is on the NSX & supports what Volk350Z has posted as well.

That Ti Gunmetal is definitely bad ***! Hmm...I've never really looked into these wheels but it's definitely growing on me.

 

The GTS that you see on the NSX is the same wheel that we mount+blance here at STATUS for sema eastcost.It is the TIT GUNMETAL.Both pix that you see is the TIT GUN guys.

 

Post some pics when you get the chance to. I cant wait to see what it looks like on a Z.

G

 

i take that back, i thought u were talking to me. I cant wait for the wheels to arrive!

 

Does anyone know what is the difference between chorme silver and mercury silver?

 

Does anyone know what is the difference between chorme silver and mercury silver?

 

there is no chrome silver. There's mercury silver, and RBC. RBC = polished all around. Mercury silver = silver finish with polished lip.

 

+1, Can't wait for your wheels to arrive

 

Like I said both pix about is Ti Gunmetal.. depend on light and camra..

if you want you can call Mackin and they will tell you the color..

 

Chrome Silver = 350z oem wheel
Mercury Silver = G35 18" oem wheel

have to see the wheel in person to see the different..
