I'd imagine these would rub a bit at the track and the car may not be perfectly balanced but they'd certainly be "track worthy".

If I remember correctly on hot version tsuchiya stated wider tires provided more grip but caused a bit more understeer (correct me if im wrong) I think the gain was 3 seconds? cant remember the tire wheel specs off the top of my head. But I would imagine seeing similar gains with the 18x8.5 kiwami's?

Also anyone have a weight for these?

Why does the title say "BRZ"?

Thats correct, but remember this car has a natural tendency to oversteer which is the fun way (in a 200hp car) but not the fast way around the track. That was with 235/35/18s though. This work kwinami set up runs square wheels with slightly wider tyres on the rear so im not sure what the results would be in regards to handling.

With wheel weights, ive heard the 18x9.5 weighs 10.5kg so that's around 23lbs.

I cant drop the idea of those rims looking like x23 claws or even wolverine claws (missing 1).
