System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19044-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 516.94

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.3.1, branch: master, commit date: 2022-10-04 18:35, hash: b292cfe5a9
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Collection instanced to scene display options are probably wrongly addressed in code. I'm attaching screenshots with descriptions (JPEGs).

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Create an object inside a Collection. Instance Collectionto scene and change its display as options to Wire and/or Bounds. You'll see that display as bounds shows wireframe while display as wire doesn't show anything. I'm attaching my file to help you investigate.

The Wire option seems like a bug, but I don't think the bounds one is, since the bounds of cuboids are the cuboids themselves.
It seems they show correctly when the instance is selected, white they don't show when it is not selected. It only happens in Solid mode.
This is reproducible back to 2.83. Maybe related to #86732.

Omar Emara changed title from ~~Collection instanced to scene display options not working correctly~~ to Collection instance set to Display As Wire doesn't show in Solid mode when not selected

It only happens in Solid mode

It happens in all viewport shading modes (except wireframe) for me

Since the bounding box is indeed right, I think it is safe to assume this is the same as #86732 (Instanced wire objects are hidden in solid mode instead wire appearance), will merge reports
