for the price diff, i can live with stock color, i shouldn't have to pay a premium for paint unless its some super special paint that will shed radar off it.
also i can get the calipers powder coated or painted myself for relatively cheap.

I've had mine for a week and the standard finish gets dirty quick with brake dust.

Painted with mine (part of the Style Pack), having a repair done to one of them this weekend so will be interested to see how he repaints it ;-)

I ended up with the Rado Gray, simply because that is what the dealer stock had on it. I would not have ordered it that way.

I went with the stock silver for daily.

Here's a pic with my race wheels 16x7 + 42 with 225/45/16

Any rubbing issues at full lock on either side. I was planning to go to a 215 but it looks like the 225s fit.

Never thought red wheels would look good, but in this case its not bad.

No rubbing yet. I haven't driven it hard yet, have an auto-x in a couple weeks.

I have noticed I need mudflaps. The wide sticky tires throw dirt up the sides.

I would have gone with the rado gray if I ordered my car. I have since replaced the stock silver wheels with some anthracite Team Dynamics pro race 1.2 wheels. The brake dust isn't nearly as noticeable on the darker wheels. I will probably get the stock wheels powder coated dark gray or matte black and use them for track wheels.
