Hi all,

I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to modify black wheels to add the red highlight around it like you can with the GT3 (as in the picture attached). I think it really helps highlight the black wheels.

Thanks!

I looked into this in the past. The two option I found was wheel rim tape. The kind often used on motorcycle sport bikes. The other option was to have a someone that does pin stripping on cars do the wheels. The problem with the wheel tape for me is that my car is carmine red and I could not find a good color match. The concern I had with he pin stripe was if it would come off if I had to have new tires mounted. I'm curious what other option you find. Do report back if you find a working solution.
The grind stops when time stops.

I just thought of this - with the GTS you get the center lock wheels like the GT3. You could perhaps just buy the GT3 wheels separately.

I just found - suncoast Porsche sells this as separate add-on.

Calling this out in case others may be searching for this. Nice way to make the GTS wheels pop / make it a bit different.

There is a tape kit you can purchase. Has an applicator to keep the tape straight. I’m sorry I don’t recall the name of the dispenser and tape.
