Howdy everyone!
It's been a while since I posted in this forum but I just completed a very comprehensive front suspension refresh so soon I want to share what I did, what I wish I didn't do (waste of $) and what I would do different. This forum has been great to me so time to give back!

Until then... a rather lame question about Icon Six Speed:

I have a hard time finding this wheel in a store so I can look and compare.
I'm stuck between the Titanium and Gunmetal.
I noticed online that the Titanium seems more matt and also the faux bolt are not silver (like the Gunmetal) - Can someone confirm this?
Anyone with one of these wheels on their 100 series (mine is blue which I know is rare but any pic helps)?

Thank you!

No takers eh?

Here's some info I found:
Gun metal (on this style) is shinier. Titanium is more matt. This is not true for all Icon wheels it seems, which I find weird.

The faux beadlock bolts on the Titanium are darker than those on the Gunmetal.

I ended up buying the Gunmetal Six Speed 17x8.5 5x150 +25
Felt that they would match my similarly colored gray trim on the car.
Got Discount Tire to match the online price of $250/wheel with new black wheel bolts included.

Also bought Toyo Open Country MT 285/70/17. Price match to $373/tire.

Once I get the tires, I'll mount them and give Big Blue some new shoes.. Should look sweet; the 16" chrome are a little dated..
 
I have the Six Speed, but in bronze so can't help you out with your specific color choices.
 
If my car was that color, I would gone bronze too!!
Felt it wouldn't fit with my blue LC.

285/70... Looks very beefy!
 
Done!
