I will have a used set with '13 FR-S springs and strut mounts available soon, if you're interested. Although I'm not sure if they'll be worthwhile when shipping costs are calculated in.

I was debating between staying in DS and going SSC. Ended up deciding to try getting a Midwest chapter of 86 Cup going with some friends. So now I'll be in STX with '17 BRZ suspension, SPC camber...

I'd tend to agree with your presumption that only #3 would apply. I guess we will see, once a more defined set of rules is published.

Yeah, the main thing swinging me toward staying in DS is the wedding I'm supposed to be saving for. :lol:

There are two factors that might tip me to SSC though:

1) A more DD friendly spec tire...

I'm guessing they'll base minimum weights off of factory weight, not a wheel with added weight.

If I'd invested that much, I'd be staying in DS too. As it is, I only have 1 set of wheels/tires, OTS Konis, and a Strano FSB that I was planning to swap out anyway. Definitely easier for me to...
