If you like the PF01, I think you'll want the regular PF01 instead of the PF01SS. The regular PF01 comes in the proper bolt pattern for the FRS.

The PF01 in 17x8 comes in two options with the 5x100 bolt pattern, which is what you want for the FRS. There's a +35 inset (or offset) and a +45 inset (or offset). I think either of these MIGHT work. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the +35 will stick out further toward the fender and the +45 will stick in closer to the suspension. So the issue is going to be fender clearance/suspension clearance. If they both clear, it will be a question of looks. It does look like the PF01 comes with a bore diameter of 75, and I THINK the stock one on the FRS is 56. But this can be remedied with some bore adapters (hub centric rings).
