Default TTS 19in stock wheel styling?

I've seen a couple shots of a europeen model TTS with the 19in wheel, showing that "edge" of blade is somewhat blackend... see below pics





However for US models, it seems the surface is just all silver according to brochure?





Can anyone confirm which is which? Thanks!!

The brochure is correct. It is not the two tone blade wheel.

Canada gets these as the standard TTS Wheel, as does the UK.
In the US they were used only for the 2016 "Launch Edition".

Another poster said these looked like wine bottles and now I can't get that image out of my head! LOL!

My wife pointed this out to me months ago as well. They are not my favorite wheel, but I could live with them.

Those two toned European rims look great, maybe TireRack has something similar when I get my winter tires.

If I could have the TTS, I'd be happy with any rim. 👊

These are my favorite factory TTS rims. I think (chime in here folks) that they're available as a factory option in some EU countries and as an accessory in the US. I believe I've seen this rim or a very close variant on the A7 in the US, and maybe another model (A6?)
