Details:
Bought these wheels & tires from Socal legend and general good guy @Matt Andrews when he had to sell his FR-S. I intended to use them for track only. However I've been so busy with mods and life that never actually ran them on my car and they stayed stored. My goals with the car have changed so I'm selling the wheels, and tires for the same ridiculously great price I bought them for.

These are GREAT for the track, why?
They're 17.8 lbs. (~3 lbs lighter than the stocks for wheels that are two inches wider than stock).
They're flow formed so they're also strong and if they should fail, they tend to bend (like a forged wheel) rather than crack (like gravity cast wheel).
The Hankook RS3s have about 4/32 tread. They're definitely good for a few track sessions or as spares. They have some camber wear. I had them rotated, inspected and rebalanced so wear is flipped. Meatiest part of tire is now on the outside edge.

Matt painted the wheels a candy blue color just lighter than mag blue (pics inside). There is no curb rash. As he described, the paint is not show quality, there are flaws mostly from mounting. Still, the color looked great on is white FR-S, but I think they would also look awesome (no pun intended) on most cars. Loved these wheels and highly recommend them to anyone.

First come, first get. Will not hold due to flaky people. Prefer local pickup (after 6pm weekdays, weekends we can work something out) - South Coast Metro, Orange County, CA . Can arrange shipping, but it's probably not going to be cheap (just sayin').
