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.

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...

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.

 

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.

Well, choice #1 and #2 were not available.

 

But I have a set on the way. And the winner is:

If I get bored of them in a year or two, I may have them powdercoated some skittles color. :D

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. :D

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.
