Wheel customization confirmed/unoffically

Those are pretty close but they are not the same.

Yup. The biggest differences are around the edge. You can see that on the Oracle, the spoke-things that come away from the centre are a lot thinner than those on the Super Diamond.

I found this that may support the theory.

What looks like the center of the wheel is actually the hub clipping through the wheel. Which means the wheel is too deep dish for the wheel well, possibly a wheel from something like transfenders. As a 3D modeler myself, I doubt very much that the 3D modeler of the car at R* would model the wheels too deep and not notice the wheel is clipping. However, additional wheels from a mod shop(possibly made by a separate modelers) probably have not been tested for fitment on all cars, and something like this image is the result.

Hub from GTA4 Comet.

GTA is not a racing game, so I'm not sure why people expect it to be.

Because San Andreas, duh orly.gif

 

Some people just expect everything from SA back in V. While I don't care for things such properties, RPG customization of the player, etc.. I care about vehicle customizations and I would be kinda disappointed if we couldn't do it in V.

 

Oh, Dan Houser or someone stated that the car handling in the next GTA will feel more like a racing game.

That's just the depth of the wheel being slightly different. Apart from that they are identical.

 

Also, the Super Drop Diamond isn't a 'custom car', it's just a car and it has wheels identical to the Cavalcade's, so it counts...

Is that enough examples of similar wheels?

There were cars in IV with spoilers, too. So one tuned version and the standard version of the car, anyway this feature was not available.

LOL.... In this topic I have seen four different wheel types and a random car I have never seen in GTA4 so I'm guessing it was a pc mod.

 

Secondly super drop diamond isn't a custom in game car? ... yes it is... its a kitted up drop diamond.

 

This thread has turned into so much fail. to say a wheel looks different then say apart from that they are exactly the same LOL. BEST COMMENT EVER !

 

 

Just thought of a car - sentinel. It was a weird car, a hidden kitted up sentinel behind a building, but once again that was the only car (that I can think of) that has two different versions.

Firstly, there are no PC mods pictured in this thread, all cars are from the Ballad of Gay Tony or IV.

 

Secondly, there's no such thing as a 'Drop Diamond', the Super Drop Diamond is it's name and it is simply painted gold, and is the only available variant in the game.

 

The wheel was exactly the same, only the depth of it is slightly different. That might even be the angle of the photo, and 'apart from that they are exactly the same' is a perfectly normal saying.

 

Lastly, there is no 'weird' Sentinel behind a building. I assume you mean the Sultan RS, and there are plenty of variants of cars. The Moonbeam has multiple accessories, as does the Infernus, the Turismo, the modified jamaican Huntley and Voodoo, the modified Schafter.

There were all kinds of different options on cars in GTA IV. Some Sentinels had black rims, some Dukes had blowers, some Sultans had spoilers, etc. etc. etc. But it was all random, there was no choice on the player's part. I see no reason to assume anything different until R* says there is customization.

As much as I want to see car customisation, I think that is the best attitude towards the issue.

 

Here's hoping...

Its called the super diamond, super drop diamond is the kitted out version.

we are not questioning if the wheels are 'almost' the same... the wheels shown in this topic are different... be it depth of the wheel or design. the wheels are still different. Its like me saying... well this NGR 900 is a bike and looks like the PCJ 600. just the front looks slightly different.

 

Makes no sense.

The Super Drop Diamond is the convertible. You can even tell from the name, since it's real life equivalent is the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead.

 

Also, saying it's a bike but looks different makes no sense. Saying it's a wheel that is slightly deeper does, since it's exactly the same design.

 

Nothing in this thread proves car customisation anyway.

Dude, the wheel has a COMPLETELY different design, as a matter of fact, it IS a completely different wheel.

False.

 

Comparing car rims from IV to V is just stupid. The cars do look the same but their rims could've been changed.

 

Until there is solid proof of one car in GTA V with two different rims, I will say that there is no proof of car customization.

It's not the rim, it is the HUB from the model POKING through the rim, meaning the rim doesnt fit that car, meaning possibly, that rim does not belong to that car and maybe from an ingame mod shop. The pic of the GTAIV model was just to show that it is the same hub, nothing to do with the Comet itself, as every GTAIV model had the same hub modeled behind the rims, and most likely, every GTAV car will have the same basic mechanical component models underneath considering they are made by the same 3D modelers as IV.

 

Either the wheel is from a mod shop that doesnt fit that particular car or the 3D modeler of the car screwed up and it hasnt been fixed yet. My point was that it is doubtful that any 3D modeler would overlook something that obvious, hinting at the possibility of a mod shop. It is way more possible to model a set of 10 rims, and have some of them not fit the cars than to model a car with it's own specific rim that doesnt fit.

That's true but I don't think Rockstar would put the same wheels on two different sports cars.

Don't think? Dude, that's a fact that Darlyn just stated. Bluntly. You can't deny that, and have no leverage to support why you "don't think" they'll keep doing what they've been doing for over 10 years of GTA.

 

More problems?

That's not proof.

 

If it were two different wheels on the same car, that would be proof.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who was betting his head blagged by the OP.

 

Wheel customisation seems pretty pointless to me anyway. I don't really get a lot of time to play video games, so when I do I don't really want to be faffing around making sure I have the specific tyre tred to complete a mission (making sure I'm using the correct vehicle is a different matter). GTA is not a racing game, so I'm not sure why people expect it to be.

Speak for yourself. If car customization were to be in the game (not confirmed yet), then they might as well include wheel modification. Besides, how can you call any popular feature pointless? The only real "point" of GTA is freedom of the fans to do what ever they want to do within a crime-based story. You've come to some terribly subject conclusions.

 

*Wheel variations =/= racing game either. If you personally think it's pointless, then avoid the customization garages. lol.gif

Someone please show me a two completely different sports cars from any GTA game with the same exact wheels. I know there has been past GTAs with cars having the same wheel but I've yet to find a GTA with two different (SPORTS CARS) with the same wheels.

I'm not going to post the picture of the V Comet due to copyright concerns (I'll post this though). It looks a little too overdressed to be the stock version of the car. The rear bumper, side skirts, and spoiler are all flamboyantly displayed. Even the exhausts are way shinier than most cars seen thus far.

 

Sorry to all of the pessimists, but this screenshot screams customization. It's certainly not proof, but it's pretty damned close.

 

*Sadly, the Infernus and many other cars haven't changed much in V (unless V introduces model years). So I wouldn't be surprise to see the same treatment for the Comet as this screen would be the customized version of it. monocle.gif

lmfao wow. doesn't know what a hub is. I agree with the original post of this quote.. the hub is sticking through, and that seems to be a likely case. hope its true.

There isn't such a thing. You can get a Super Diamond, which is the saloon version, but no hardtop Super Drop Diamond.

I would like to see car customisation but seeing the same design of wheel on two cars is not proof.

 

Where is the photo of this so called proof anyways?

It's not proof. It just strengthens the case. In my last post on here I posted a gta.wikia link where the "new" comet can be seen. It is GI copyright so we can't put the direct link to the pic.

just an idea how about looking at all the audi r8's in the pics and trailers and analyzing them, im pretty sure they show like 3 of them in all. check out the rims and then we should get a pretty good idea. if one of them is different we got a decent idea.
