I did a little bit of research but I still don't think I know what I am doing. Costco is having a sale on steelies right now. According to their sizing guide http://www.costco.ca/wcsstore/Costco.../100018256.pdf there isn't a recommended wheel out for the FRS or the BRZ currently. I have however, heard of people just swapping other Subaru wheels for use on the FRS/BRZ so it should be the same no? The only difference I see is the hex and the bolt diameter?

Anyways, they recommend the X40867T as 16" for all the Subaru vehicles and as per their online store, http://www.costco.ca/Steel-Wheels.pr...100018256.html these things are $18.99 a piece!

In addition to that, Canadian Tire's got the Michelin Xice Xi2s on sale at around ~$130 a tire.

What do you guys think?
I am interested in this as well. I looked into the X40867T and they are $23.99 each for me but hell, I'm not going to bicker over $5/wheel. I was expecting to have to pay much more than that.

Nothing is listed for the BRZ but it looks like that fits all the Subaru's so it should be fine for the BRZ as well, right?

Nice find on the $130 tires as well.

Depending on what you guys say I may very well be ordering me some wheels this morning. Hope somebody in the know replies!
