Oh no, I'm at it again....

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.

[Buckeye1647545503]

I think you can find better options personally. And I would go something other than black unless they are track only wheels.

[coldsoda]

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...

Works or Advans in bronze or gunmetal. No black. No white.

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.

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.

Enkei NT03+M in black

 

+1. Or white.

[Aaron]

+1. Or white.

 

the thought of trying to keep a white wheel face clean is stressful, let alone the inner barrels.

[Draco-REX]

Just got done cleaning the car... those RGD wheels are looking mighty easy to clean right now. LOL

[ForeverMaker]

Don't do gloss black. Mine are impossible to keep clean.

[Draco-REX]

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*

[GSXRAntwon]

^^ My vote. Would look nice on your car. Black on black. Do it with the drop or hide it in a garage until you do.

Fuck brakes. They only slow you down.

 

Ive ALWAYS loved the NT03's, it gets my vote as well :thumbup:

[CRed05]

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.

[Sparky]

Advans in gold

[Draco-REX]

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.

[Cordell]

Okay fine even made a poll to voice my opinion, lol. Those were my second choice anyway.

[spankis]

You planning on that much sidewall? Car in the picture looks good.

[Draco-REX]

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.

[Xyster101]

+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!

[Ramsey]

Lightweight baby!

[cruizin01]

You have a tire picked out? I didn't see that anywhere.

[Draco-REX]

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.

[cruizin01]

woof.

 

I think your gonna need 2 blowers to lose grip with those tires.

[Draco-REX]

woof.

 

I think your gonna need 2 blowers to lose grip with those tires.

 

Then I can put it all down.

[Draco-REX]

Well they're here. The ever-so-slight concave improves their look 100x over the usual high-offset RPF1.
