Poormans: quoting my post from earlier. The above brands I've had great luck with for cast wheels.

For forged wheels volk and Desmond are both great ones that I have experience with.

There are other great brands too but I only talk about ones I've had personal experience with.

you're going to have to forgive my lack of how things work with aftermarket wheels. never upgraded wheels on a car or anything other than.routine maintenance ace stuff on.a small scale.

The AS1 chassis (GT86/BRZ/FR-S) has a bolt pattern of 5X100 therefore a 5X114 wheel will not work on the cars

I think he means bad because, the AS1 uses the 5X100 bolt pattern

aha! thanks for the clarification!

Mr.Jay · 12-26-2011, 08:15 PM

yea if you want wedssport rims you are going to have to go for an adapter which I hear aren't usually the best or do a full conversion using STi parts (hopefully this is a option)

5x100 does make choosing rims and companies selection more narrow

Hoping for 5X114 compatibility as well

Lol I'm going to say this again. They will make the AS1 5X114.3 just not the first year. Probably the second or third year of production.
