I agree completely on both accounts. A 17x8 +35 is exactly what I want, I'm just still struggling to find the best wheels for me (price/function/form) in this size. And I completely forgot that STI made a wing for this car....time to go check how many organs I need to sell so I can own it.

The real STI pinks didn't fit my idea of a BRZ STI at a slightly too modest drop of 15mm (somehow the extra 5mm drop from the RCE is perfect to my discerning eyes)

I actually have a base model BRZ without a spoiler from the factory. Otherwise, no, the 5axis spoiler wouldn't cover the stock spoiler holes.

Here's another picture I snapped the next day
