So I've been considering these for my Crystal Black Silica BRZ, in black.

I'll be honest, here.. I don't really know much about cars. I never cared about wheels or boost or suspension or anything, until I laid my eyes on the 86 Twins when they were announced. So I'm 24 (almost) and just now starting to learn what I can. Because I don't want to mess anything up, I'm beginning my journey with easy mods. Trims, interior additions, etc. Nothing big or expensive. And wheels.

With that said, I have a friend who has taught me quite a bit but I'd like some more opinions (and if you're willing, advice) about finding good wheels.

I know I should be looking for a +35mm offset. I'm going to go with 18" wheels. I really love the look of wider rear wheels and front wheels that are wide, but not as much and not so wide that I can't turn properly (obviously).

First question, how do you guys feel about these? I love them and will probably be getting them. This question's more about curiosity.

Secondly, would 18x10.5 or even 18x11/11.5 be too wide for the rear? Would that cause any sort of performance problems? What's the widest I should go, with front and rear?

Third, I plan on lowering the car quite a bit. Definitely not slamming it, and won't do any cambering for now until I've learned more about how it all works. So far, coilovers seem to be what I'm looking for. If I plan on lowering it, would I have to change up what size wheels I have, and would the limits on width change?

Thanks in advance, and be easy on me. Cheers.
