I'm passing on those. I'll admit I was way off. Discovered the frsproject tire calculator and have decided that ordering a set to my exact specs is the better option. It's a lot of money but I know I could resell them to another 86 or subie guy in my area.
I'm picturing
Work VS-KF in 5x100 18x9.5 +30 on a
245/40/18
Locating a 5x100 set is proving to be extremely challenging. 18s in 5x100 that I've found are all shit and would need to be rebuilt anyways. Instead I'm going with Devilswerk wheels. They gave me the best quote with shipping.
What offset could I run to maximize the lips of the wheel? +27,+30, or +35?
What size tire is best for a lower profile look with minimal stretch on a 9.5 wheel? 245/40 or 235/40?
**Edit: Or would a 18x8 an aggressive offset like +15 be a better route? That would allow me to fun skinnier tires and enjoy stock power levels
I've seen plenty of threads with people running other 18x9.5 +38 or +45 wheels but not many VS-KFs on stock body 86s. Won't consider 225s on a 9.5 either. Too risky
About my car:
WRB BRZ
Fortune Auto v5s
Camber Bolts
This will allow me to tilt in the fronts. I'm expecting no more than -3.5 camber max to get this to all work. I'll order rear LCAs if I'm not happy without how the rear sit.
Prepared to receive some hate for the hotboy wheels/instagram build :/
