Excellent. I think I'm definitely getting these wheels when my BRZ comes in. Just want a slight spacer to bring them more flush with the wheel wells. I wish they'd offer these in the same sizes they do for 5x114.3

Couple of questions for you guys that have these wheels with the 225/40/18 tires:

1.) How's the ride quality (both before and after the drop)?
2.) How's the handling characteristic of the car compared to stock?
3.) Is there room for BBK setup?

Thanks in advance..

Firestorm with TSW

Just wondering if anyone has the TSW Interlagos (Black or Silver) with a Firestorm. Please post if you do! Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Its actually not so hard to do myself...Hopefully this helps other Firestorm owners

Thanks to the other TSW posting for the car pic.

Center Bore

For those who have got Interlagos did you need a hub ring to make them hub centric?

Apparently the hub size is 72mm and our FRS is 56.1mm. Which is a significant hub ring.

Couple of technical questions if you don't mind:

How far down are you from stock in these pictures?
(chassis ride height change please 'cuz 225/40/18 is slightly taller than OEM 215/45/17)

Also, what are the camber specs front and rear as you are currently set up?
(for starting point/reference because different camber settings will affect the relationship between the top of the tire/wheel and the top of the fender lip)

Thanks!

About to purchase these wheels...18x8 +35 225/40/18 Tires
First time purchasing after market wheels so I just want to make sure I have everything covered...

I'm at stock height (for the moment)...Do I need spacers, hub ring or anything else to make this setup perfect? I like a flush setup but doesn't have to be exact

Any help is appreciated!

You should be fine. I was only lowered on RSR coils, and only a moderate lower. I'm on a completely different setup now though.
