I think they look bad because they are two tone wheels in black and silver, nothing to do with being oem. Plenty of cars have nice OEM rims, the fr-s just isn't one of them.

It's just personal preference. I don't mind the rims on the 350z/370z/rx-8/evo's/genesis ect... Just never cared for ours lol

I still can't figure out why the BRZ and the FRS use the same rims
It seems like an easy way to separate them

What you said is stupid. Look at the center cap. Is that an easy way to separate them?

Guy has no idea of how joint venture or how manufacturing works. Saving costs.

BTW, Do you have a eta for your baby yet?
