A guy with a white EP came into the shop about a month ago and just had his rota grids painted House Of Kolor Blurple!
They looked sick!
Next time he comes in I'll take pics since he needs buff work done almost monthly...lol
why do people like the GT3s? is it because they look like the eg base model wheels?

It's because they look like Gabs.

its a personal prefference... im sure theres things others question that you may like. different strokes... but they are a pretty popular wheel, they go well with alot of different cars/body styles and look good in about any color (again, taste pending).
i like the simplicity of the wheel and the "loudness" that could be had by say, painting them green. a simple wheel thats green isnt so plain anymore...

Colors that I've been tossing around for my GT3's (on my EG) - Candy Metallic Teal, Candy Metallic Green, Candy Metallic Red, Flat Anodized Red, Flat Anodized Green

I agree!
I've painted a lot of wheels in the past few years and the colors people pick seem odd at first but when they get slapped on i'd have to say it takes a basic wheel and turns into something unique.
I know to some people that sounds stupid but like i said in a prior post on this thread a guy that is a regular at my shop has a white EP and at first i hated it but he has alot of Blurple accented parts on his car and it has definitely grown on me.

Sometimes I wonder that too, despite knowing they're Gab replicas.
