Given that the Base also has an option for sports exhaust tips, a more reliable way to identify one is the side air-intakes at the front - they are closed plastic in a Base, but open and displaying the cooling radiator elements in the S and GTS.

Do agree the 21” wheels look good in theses photos.

Assume the Standard GTS RS wheels will be much darker?
I think the darker finish will look better with the Black grille etc..

Yep, they are Matt black not satin platinum
Lots of pics online

Zadkiel,

Respect! ;)

I saw the 21" platinum GT wheels on this Crayon Cayman GT4 and they looked awesome.
They are the standard wheels on a GT4.
Again, each to their own but I like them.
:D

Similar image convinced me that those wheels are the way to go with Gentian Blue too. Was previously considering the diamond cut Standard GTS wheels but having now seen those in another thread it will definitely be these.

Though the pedant in me recognises that they’re a slightly different design and smaller on the GT4

I'll admit I'm not a massive 911 fan but that colour with those wheels looks amazing. Anyone that has chosen Gentian blue (if that is what that is) has chosen very well.

The ones on the Macan are a slightly different design.
Look at the spokes and the wheelnuts. Whereas on the GT4 they’re a flat spoke design the Macan has grooves and sharper curves which are a little hard to see in the pics but they give it a more 3-dimensional impression.
