I think I'm gonna try and get a +38 offset instead, for more poke lol. It doesn't say they have +38 on the size chart, but it doesn't hurt to ask Enkei lol

Im pretty sure its not that long a wait. FT86 Speed Factory has them in stock if im not mistaken. They are located in Iowa so im sure it would only take a few days for them to get in.

I actually live in Union City just up north Fremont. I take 880 south to SJSU Mon & Wed. You've prolly havent seen me lately since I damaged my LCA's after hydroplaning on this slippery road with Trac off during the rain. Other than that, I've been driving my FR-S to SJSU since like October until February.

I have a white FR-S with toyota emblems, clear sidemarkers, and a GrimmSpeed license plate relocator.

Yeah, I'm sure there are multiple places that have them in stock. But I'm still trying to encourage my store manager to make an account with Turn 14 Distribution. Because they're actually cheaper than wholesale from Enkei themselves. Not only that, they supply SSR, and Gram Lights too. So I'm pretty sure we're gonna be the only America's Tire that sells SSRs and Gram Lights LOL.

Well if he goes through with it. Like I said, I'm only 18, don't have much influence; even if I'm hella cool with our store manager

Sorry for the stupid question, but how come these wheels won't fit on stock suspension? is it because they're 9.5?

Will they fit on ANY set of coilovers? like FA500 or KW1s for example.

You need to adjust the camber to get these to fit. I believe that's the main reason.

Everyone knows these as the infamous "Rocket Bunny" wheels, but this time they are in FR-S/BRZ specific spec. 18x9.5+43 with 5x100 bolt pattern. Just what the doctor ordered!

We have 265/35/18 Hankook RS-3's wrapped around these beauties and have no clearance issues at all. Of course, we are on coilovers and we expect inner clearance to be an issue for people that still have stock spring perches on the OEM struts, nothing a 5mm spacer won't cure. They clear our AP Racing Sprint Kit brakes up front by plenty; more clearance than we had on our RPF1 setup. And at 20lb. per wheel, you get a classy look with performance to back it up.

Just check out the photos

Do you think the Stoptech 355x32 front and 345x28 rear BBK would fit without issue?
