I think I'm going this route after I pick up my FRS. I like that it looks more performance oriented but also looks like a factory option.

Look really good. Did you set up similar size tires and where did you order the raijin from? I'm thinking to go w/ silver for my setup.

I like the 265 tire fitment for rear, but not sure about the 245 wide tires for front. Should I go with 235x40x18 V12 tires which may easier to fit than the wider 245 for front? I already have eibach prokit w/stock rims.

Your call! The widths are so close I can't see there being much difference either way.

Enkei Raijin 18x8.5 - 18x9.5

Front 18x8.5 +45 with 225/40
Rear 18x9.5 +45 with 255/35

Shop is crazy dusty, just needs a bit of a drop now.

look good. Just a little poke about ~1/4" but it can be twist in w/ camber and spring drop. Can you describe the drive and feel compare to stock?

Thanks, so far car feels about the same as it did with stock wheels, more grip in the corners but you can still make it kick out if you want like stock, so i think no fun factor lost at all like this, just more grip hopefully it stops raining so i can go drive more in the dry soon,

Thanks for the camber tip i will look into that when i look for springs, cause it does need just that little bit of a drop for sure. The good thing tho no rub and nothing to worry about stock with this wheel setup.
