Ditch the 2011 rims. They're large, heavy, and ugly.

Hm I say go with the AE's in the 4th gen and put the Track editions on the 5.5 fasho.

The 7th gen rims just don't belong in the mix.

Better keep the Tracks on that 5.5.

The AEs look like they belong on the 4th. Sell those 2011s.

Do the 2011 rims have the same bolt pattern as the 5.5 Gen??

For anyone who has done the switch what tire size do you have and is there any rubbing?

Obviously yes for the first question. Its all in the pics.

As for the second one, i doubt it. It looks like they fit perfectly. Might rub on a hard dip though

Definitely keep the tracks on the 5.5, they are beautiful. Look at Zero2sixty's car and tell me you drool.. Of course the car in general is perfect but the tracks add the simplicity to the already aggressive look.
2011 look good also but are probably extremely heavy.

I agree: tracks on the 5.5, anniversary on the 4th gen

btw. what size tires do you have on the tracks? I am looking to replace mine soon, and was wondering about how wider tires would look...
