the TE is classic cool. I have a set of bronze TE's on my DA. No knockoffs.

Another good wheel (but expensive) are the Work Meisters. Here is a chop I made

Unfortunately all of the wheels that look nice in RWD offsets like Meisters and VS-XX's look like crap in FWD offsets..
I haven't been looking hard but the largest wheel with a lip that MIGHT fit without excessive camber is an XD-9 18x10 +38 with a lip that's just under 3" But still.. that's 13mm out further than the Greddy FR-S' Rays in the rear and you'd need to convert to 5x114.3 as well. Think you'd be hard pressed to fit something like that, and even then 3" still isn't a whole lot of lip.. (you're looking at even less than that for the front) Sorry to be a downer.. ![]() |

18x9.5 is >+45. an 18x10 +38 will not fit on this car without stretching or excessive camber. |

18x10 +50 would make inner clearance lower by 11mm and likely hit the coilovers
The G12's on the Greddy FR-S are 19x9.5 +45 but they said it was definitely not an aggressive fit.. (though the tires were stretched) there was still room to go wider or lower offset. I just used the 18x10 +38's as an example.. They poke out .5" more than the G12's and since those were said not to be aggressive I used them as a possibility. We don't know for sure what would make them fit since no one physically has this car to measure. I guess I was just trying to bring about the point that all of these photoshops where the cars have super concave and deep dish wheels would be next to impossible to achieve. The Meisters above don't look anything like that when they have ~+40 offsets which would fit this car.. |

Perfect size tyre on a 9.5 rim is around 275mm. Just how much wider do you want to go?

Awesome! blue and TE37s were what i was hoping for also. A lot of people don't like them apparently, but that means a lot of people won't have them too!

![]() I do love TE37's. I agree with the OP, that is how I would want my BRZ to look. |

Not sure about u folks, but the only aftermarket choice
I am gonna go with the Subaru BRZ is gold / bronze RPF01 as it is the working mans performance wheels... Pure Function ((I have them on my current car in 5x112 _ - _ ... I doubt the BRZ will be 5x112))
