Default New Vertini VS04 wheels

Thought I’d share some pics of my new Vertini VS04s, shod with Michilen Pilot Sport 4s tires. The wheels are finished in what they call “Brushed Titanium”, but I prefer to call it “brake dust grey”. I sprang for the ceramic clear coat, which glosses them up, and makes cleaning a breeze.

Your car looks stunning! Agree with tberg, great colors!

Any other "next steps" under consideration?

Man if you wrapped your side chrome grills in the same kind of titanium gray..that would be so badass.

How much time did you spend looking at wheels before you found those? I don't think you could have done any better. Those are amazing.

Brake dust grey is a great idea!

Besides the Storm Grey, Sapphire Blue and British Racing Green look absolutely stunning.

Thanks for the kind words. I am in fact investigating having the chrome accents coated to match the wheels - They are the last chrome pieces left on the car, other than the badges on the rear, having already had the chrome window surrounds painted gloss black. The chrome front grill surround was replaced by a gloss black one when I did the Project 7 grill. While F Types look great in any color, I really like the blue, and while I see F Types every week, I’ve never seen another blue one.
As for future upgrades, once the warranty expires, I’ll enlist Stewart’s help for a lower pulley upgrade, sport cats, and a custom tune. Bebe Performance, just down the road from me, has supposedly cracked the code for torque management in the computer, so I may investigate that as well. It’s already lowered on H&R springs, so I’m unaware of any other upgrades available, except maybe the lightweight brakes. I don’t track the car, (I’ve got a Z06 for that), so the brakes might be overkill.
I’d like to compliment Need4Speed Motorsports for their excellent customer service on the wheels and Michilen Pilot Sport 4s tires.
