No, they are Enkeis, from TireRack. 19 x 9.5, square setup. 255s all the way around.

The stock wheels are black with silver accents. Although I’m not a huge black wheel guy, I think the black works well with the orange; the contrast is nice.

I went gloss black on my winter wheels as well, though I kept the widths to 225 IIRC. Did you end up going with the Alpins?

Yes, Alpin PA4s. Haven’t driven them much but on first blush they feel good; not crazily different from the Super Sports in basic around town stuff.

Another pic during the golden hour just to show how much the color varies. It’s a really cool orange.

I also have black wheels on my 4Runner

Yes, Alpins (I've had both PA3 & PA4, just put my set on the boxster) are the best-behaved snow tire on tarmac. They are not quite up for the deep stuff or a Northern VT crossing with RWD, but they were fine on an Audi... Perfect for M3 in DC.
