Geeesammy Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Ever give a thought to Volk TE37's? Never have seen them on a BRZ/FRS, but I would imagine they would have something that would fit. A bit pricey but they are insanely light and the design looks great on anything IMO. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye1647545503 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 I think you can find better options personally. And I would go something other than black unless they are track only wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldsoda Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Advan RGD 18x9.5+40 in black and Enkei NT03+M in black 18x9.5+40 are the two best choices. BTW thanks for all the pictures, saved me from looking it up! Dont think you'll end up liking the white after a while.. The darker colors you posted look nicer, more upscale for sure. Even Bronze, gold.... keep us posted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Alex- Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Works or Advans in bronze or gunmetal. No black. No white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had them on my STI and loved them. But they are very expensive. Money that goes towards the wheels comes out of the coilover budget. 03SVT said: Works or Advans in bronze or gunmetal. No black. No white. In the Subaru world, I think gold/bronze is a bit overdone. Gunmetal is a possibility, but not available on these wheels. I could have WheelMedic take a shot at them, but that will bump the cost up another $500 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco-REX Posted July 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Just got done cleaning the car... those RGD wheels are looking mighty easy to clean right now. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverMaker Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Don't do gloss black. Mine are impossible to keep clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Well, the black NT03s aren't available. They are coming, but the last two times I've waited for wheels they've been months overdue. So I'm not doing that again. *grumble* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck brakes. They only slow you down. Ive ALWAYS loved the NT03's, it gets my vote as well :thumbup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Enkei NT03+M in white. I think since you have a black/dark car, go with the white. Looks good, and if I see one more black car with black wheels I'm going to shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco-REX Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Well, choice #1 and #2 were not available. But I have a set on the way. And the winner is: Enkei RPF1 in matte black 18x9.5+38 http://ft86speedfactory.com/images/Angelo-6.JPG http://ft86speedfactory.com/images/AngOnCar-7.JPG If I get bored of them in a year or two, I may have them powdercoated some skittles color.

spankis Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 You planning on that much sidewall? Car in the picture looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 spankis said: You planning on that much sidewall? Car in the picture looks good. Yes. For one thing, the good tires don't come with smaller sidewalls. And another, I don't want a paint-smear for tires. I want ultimate grip from them, and having some sidewall helps. These things are going to look monstrous on this car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xyster101 Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 +1 to those RPF1! I have had staggered and it sucks. Can't rotate the tires and rears always get chewed up faster. Car has low power as it is, keep things as light as you can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco-REX Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 cruizin01 said: You have a tire picked out? I didn't see that anywhere. It's looking like 265/35-18 Dunlop Z2 tires. But for a bit more I can stay with the AD08s. However, they aren't the new AD08R which has a comparable compound to the Dunlop. Not that the current compound AD08s suck in any way.. R-S3s tend to have soft sidewalls, so aren't really what I want. The RE11 is a good tire, but being a little superficial here, I prefer the look of directional tires over asymmetric.

Draco-REX Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Well they're here. The ever-so-slight concave improves their look 100x over the usual high-offset RPF1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
