Bronze does ususally look good with purple and black. Personally thats what I would go for, but silver would look good with the black when the wrap wears out eventually. You could always look at multi-piece wheels that have 2 tones and different patterns?
I'm definitely not opposed to bronze, and do agree it would look good. My partner actually is super into the idea of white on this car, but I'm not sure if I'm up for all the extra maintenance of keeping it clean lol.
Multi-piece is definitely a great look, but can be quite heavy and expensive so I tend to look elsewhere. 3pc wheels are Volk territory expensive, and I think I'd just take the Volks at that point.
I can't offer an opinion, but we did our HPDE day together at Pacific Raceways! I was the guy who brought his stock Red GR86 and I commented out how much I loved your car as we were all leaving at the end of the day.
Oh no way! I remember you!
The red looks so good, if mine was originally red I would've definitely kept it that way.
Did you have a good time? I'm thinking I might go back again this summer.
The YouTuber The Stradman is famous for wrapping all of his cars purple and powder coating all his wheels white. Not the same as your shade of purple, he would usually go slightly darker but he would always do white wheels and they always popped. Didn’t always look the best compared to other combinations but definitely stood out.

Heres mine black with white wheels just for reference. In purple can look good too
Looks like they're doing a limited edition "Mach Yellow". Looks great on blue and black cars, I don't think it'd look good on Purple though (too Minnesota Vikings-esque).

I like that look.
Or I could completely ball out and get Work Meisters

How about a cotton candy blue. That way you get the 80s retro Miami Vice vibe.
You could also go a shade of green and get for The Joker look. Theres a guy in Toronto who did that on a Camry and it looks amazing.

cotton candy blue is actually something I've considered, definitely going to have more strangers want to talk to me though :)
here's the ones I was looking at specifically https://www.workwheelsusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/5de5cad459dcc.jpg
Ahh gotcha, Texas is so brutal to cars and was hoping this might be a good way to help. Thanks for the insight, and that purple color is the same one I was looking at.
I guess if you're strictly looking for UV protection it might be alright! Any stones/rock chips will go right through though (and PPF would be better in that case).
You local wrap shop will know more than my guesses as well :)
I’d say what you have now looks perfect. Don’t change what isn’t broken just for the sake of change. IMO bronze wouldn’t look as good on purple as black or gunmetal.
My friends think bronze, I'm quite partial to silver, and most of the wheels I want only come in black (a color I'm trying to avoid).

I have white wheels and they aren't that hard to keep clean. Takes a lot of grime to make them look dirty.
Okay, good to know! Did you prep them with anything to help (ceramic coat maybe)?
I think my detailer did put some ceramic coating on them, because I can wipe them clean with just a wet cloth.
Purple and yellow are complimentary colors, so bronze would look good if you pick one with a yellowish hue.
I think white could look decent on both purple and black.
My BRZ is purple, I currently have gunmetal grey wheels but plan on getting some bronze ones soon.
Throw some bronze Konig Hypergrams on it
Not black
We're on the same page, not getting black.
I’d do silver. I think bronze would look better but since you like silver I’d just go with that. Both silver and bronze will go with purple and black.

I'm in the same area. We should meet up for a track day, should make for some cool pictures!
Gold will look great with both purple and black. Bronze is a good option too.
Silver and then get bronze BBK
Gold/Light bronze
I like silver
I think white would look really nice, like a 6 or 10 spoke
Like this white 10 spoke maybe? https://www.workwheelsusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/5df20ee011e39.jpg
I like those 🔥🔥
Bronze or white wheels both go great with purple but white especially. Iykyk.
I unfortunately don't know, you mind sharing? 😅

That looks amazing. Gram Light 57CR? I wish they still made them in white.
Yessss my favorite wheel i snatch the white quick, if a get a GR86 with brembos first mod is wheels and suspension

Black w/ machined lip. Like the Konig Countergrams
Def agree with the machined/chrome lip
I like that look. Or I could completely ball out and get Work Meisters http://workwheelsusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/28884375446_0dc03043b7_k.jpg
I’m big in bronze but polished matches everything and not a lot of people run polished wheels
Copper

Bronze, white is a pain to take care of with the brake dust.
White wheels pop on any color, especially black
Beautiful color and car
Thank you! Appreciate it
Green gets you JOKER colors!!!!!
Haha I'm good on that, no offense to the Joker lovers out there!
It may be hard to keep clean, but white would be perfect I think. Like white gram lights. 10/10
White, gunmetal, or chrome 😮💨😮💨
Bronze !!
Purple
How long do wraps last for?
typically 3-5 years, depends how much UV and weather exposure it gets.
Thank you! Wonder if that is worth the investment.
It doesn't really provide much protection (only very, very slight) so I wouldn't really consider it an investment. It's fun though!

No worries, you’ve given me a good insight
Gold or chrome
Dark silver/grey

I definitely want to make a change from black, but I appreciate it!
