Ok...it looks like I am going to order my BRZ (either hyperblue or blue) today. If I want to modify the suspension and get new wheels and tires, what are your thoughts? These seem to be simple mods. I might have diff and tran fluids changed out, as well as upgrade air intake and upgrade exhaust.

For now, it looks like just suspension and wheels/tires.

I am thinking the Forgestar CF5 Wheels (black). What size tires? 18x8? 18x9? Also, should I do these upgrades thru dealership or where?

I have found a couple of Subaru mod shops in the DFW area and have actually visited one of them, but they were trying to pitch a turbo right off the bat. They also said they had mixed success with air intake mods/exhaust and that the HP actually DECREASED on a few of the BRZs with these "upgrades".

Again, I am going to be happy with the engine for a while so at this point am just looking for better handling and F-U-N. And as superficial as it sounds, a deeper sound from the exhaust perhaps.

I am not looking to be the fastest car. Just want something fun for me and my teenage boys (my boys will be learning stick on this car, but it will be dad's car!!!!!!!, lol).

Thoughts? Fire away.

I'm not buying a Mustang so no need to go there, lol.
