WRB BRZ...GT 300 wheels?



I'm sure these are...20s? But I love the way this car looks. Anyone have any idea which wheels these are, any other shots of WRB with black wheels? I'm not fully settled on which wheels I want to put on the car, but I'm leaning more towards the multispoke/bbs style wheel.

They're race-spec BBS wheels (no 5x100 lugs). Also pretty safe to say the seats are Recaro, oil is Motul, suspension is Bilstein, and tires are Yokohama Advans. It's written all over the car.

I'm also considering black wheels. Perhaps 18" Rays G25 but not sure how it will look on WRB.

Hmm...I looked at the current BBS lineup and they don't really have anything that matches this wheel.

Actually TSW has a handful of wheels that match this pattern somewhat closely.

Donnington:



Max:



Mugello:



Nurburgring (Forged):

They look more like 19s but it's very hard since all the typical things like the fender arches are much bigger

Looks like the BBS Ferrari GT wheels. Similar to the BBS CH-R.
