21 inch wheels question for 2025

[Feb2025]

I have had comments from my family that the 21" wheels look like they will be very hard to keep clean. Has anyone found this to be an issue ? Dealer said it wouldn't be of concern and they are easy to clean (but they would say that anyway) and I'm having trouble finding any to look at out in the wild, lol. I asked about optional wheels but it would appear not for the 2025 GV70 3.5T SP that I am getting. I saw a plainer wheel for 2026 that looked decent but didn't want to wait, as I don't want the full digital display and much prefer the actual instrument cluster on the 2025.

I purchased a 2025 GV70 3.5 Sport Prestige Storr green and vanilla beige on 2-8-25. I think the 27” rectangle they call the dashboard in the 2026 was a deal breaker for me. All that design effort to incorporate the Ovid design everywhere and then plop down a tablet and call it a day…hard pass.

I had $4,400 21” Ferrada’s in storage from my 2022 GV70 Sport Advance that came with 19”. The OEM 21” clean up easy peasy being five spoke. The hideous waffle pattern cleans up easy too.

You do get 2mpg worse with the 21” vs the 19” and can verify that. But I like the five spoke pattern and appreciate the ease they clean up.

I like the rims in the first photo MUCH better than the first photo!
