Much better! :happy0180:

Guys, it's 100 PCD. That part of the scan is a general Q&A section and has ZERO specific information for the car.

The scans DO show the real wheel sizes and weights... it's 5x100. period.

^This. It's showing how to read a wheel size, not what the size is. Also, the next cell down, covered by the pull-out, lists a 225/45-17 tire.

This looks like a generic Q&A section for the sales people to better understand measurements and not necessarily specific to the FT86.

I think you're taking it too personal. Literally saying, "Great road feedback" by virtue of improved transmission of road imperfections is accurate, not that it's typically desirable. Performance IS defined by the end customer, which may not be your definition of performance.

Perhaps he meant to say "improved steering transient response", in which case low profile tires do just that better than high profile tires through reduced sidewall deformation [generally speaking].

Getting into the weight of the rolling stock is another topic, and may or may not be perceptible depending on the car. With cars like the Miata, every rotating pound is felt. Running Spec Miata rolling stock turns the car into a relative sloth. With my Exige, however, 2 rotating pounds per corner isn't all that noticeable, strangely enough. It all comes down to the total suspension package and how external forces are transferred into the chassis.

In the end, it's not just different strokes for different folks, it's car dependent too regarding its sensitivity.

The "low spec" comes from the factory with 16"s. 15's might be a tough fit. Do we even know brake rotor sizes yet?

They both come in:
17×7.5J +55 PCD=100mm
18×7.5J +55 PCD=100mm

Actually it's not the same wheels, the concept STi wheel has more spokes.

5x100

5x114.3 is where all the good wheels at lol.
