Just installed those sexy wheels... GOD DAMN I love them!

UPDATED: Now lowered

These will be my street wheels, so i've kept the OEM tires. They really look good streched. When lowered the car will be sooo sexy. The fitment is perfect, a little bit inside for the rear but I'll ad just a little bit of front negative camber when the coilover will be installed.

VersionUp · 06-22-2012, 04:24 PM

the rear should look fine after the drop.

MiguelAE86 · 06-22-2012, 04:32 PM

Could someone 'shop this "slammed" ? and one Not so slammed? I'm curious to see the first FR-S with stretched wheels!

Wreakin · 06-22-2012, 06:18 PM

Does look nice. Although i'm more of a staggered fan.

ZILLA · 06-23-2012, 09:17 PM

Lookin like 16s to me...

CoRi J · 06-23-2012, 09:34 PM

bronze + white =

I'm sure when you do a nice drop on it. It will go together well. Either way still looks good. Nice choice of wheels

There's my noobish PS skills attempt at it. It looks like it'll be really nice on a drop like that with the setup

DarrenDriven · 07-28-2012, 10:22 PM

Hey Project.sth, congrats... according to my calculations and research, you are one of only two people on this forum to mount a perfectly flush wheel. Of course, I need you to verify this in the real world to double-check my work.

Can you check the front wheels on your car (assuming you are still at stock height) and tell me if you think the lip of your wheels are perfectly flush with your fenders?

trueno86power · 08-16-2012, 01:47 AM

Hey sorry mate i've never seen this message. But yeah, they are really flush at the front, at the rear it could be pushed a little bit more. I've updated the pictures of my car to a one that is lowered. Thanks for your work !

DarrenDriven · 08-16-2012, 02:40 AM

Glad to hear that they were flush when you were at stock height... that will help people select the right wheel specs for them. Thanks for the feedback!

Your wheels look great

How much did you lower it by? Any rubbing/clearance issues?

The rear track on the BRZ/FR-S is 20mm less that the front. A set of 10mm wheel spacers with the extended lugs should get the rears to also be flush, just like the front.

SWPreefer · 02-13-2013, 03:46 PM

Where did you get these wheels? I am absolutely in love with them. I searched google and couldn't find anything. These are made by 5 Zigen correct? IMO these fit these cars beautifully.

thanks mike
