    Can someone identify this wheel type? I know it is the forged wheel, but is it the "Matte Silver Painted Forged wheel" or the "Matte Grigio Corsa Painted Forged wheel?"

    Thanks!

    This is definitely the Grigio. The Matte Silver is very bright.
    Though this image is computer generated, the silver is very bright. The dark forged wheel is not black but the Grigio Corsa you stated.

    Yes, I think it will look good with Rosso Corsa as well... But I think that it needs a lighter brake caliper behind it... What color calipers did you go with?

    Is this the F12 that is advertised at Lamborghini of Houston? 2014 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Houston, Texas | Lamborghini Houston If it is the car originally came with the silver Forged rims.

    Yes! And thus my confusion... The window sticker indicates the Silver Forged rims, but the car is wearing the dark ones... So they were swapped at some point?

    I cannot see the original photo very well to tell if it's solid grey or diamond?

    Here we have the " 20" Sportfelgen im Diamond Finish-Design ". 20" sport wheel with diamond cut finish I believe is what it's called.

    Yeah either that or painted them. Like rmitchell248 was saying it's hard to see the picture if the rim is one solid color or two colors with the second color being silver on the leading edge. If it has some silver on the leading edge than the rims are called Diamond finished(Opt code RSFD) if the rims are one color than they Grigio Corsa(OPT code RIFS).
