I'm gonna spend some time playing with the stock setup first obviously, but I was thinking 17x7.5 RPF1's + a set of star spec IIs?

I already have a thing for the Dunlops after running star specs on my GTI for the last few years. They're great tyres.

If there's anyone running this combo (with Z1s, of course) I'd be really interested to hear their impressions vs stock.

The only thing I don't like about the RPF1's are the looks. I'd really prefer a nice mesh design, but I can't find any that I like and that are light. TSW Nurburgrings aren't bad but don't come in a flat silver, Enkei Raijins are heavy and only come in 18"+, and BBS CH-Rs are not that light and incredibly expensive. I wish Apex made BRZ wheels. Something like this http://www.apexraceparts.com/ARC-8-1...ies_p_132.html but smaller (and lighter) and in the right bolt pattern would be amazing...
