To publish a template with so many blanks and typos for the official site is wrong.

Way to go and screw it up.

US cars have always had the 17s specced.

Exactly what I was thinking. Unprofessional.

Did Scion hire a bunch of high school students? :/

Oh my bad, then. Stagerred setting still seems odd. Could be a typo.

It always been 17 inch wheels. The tC comes with 18 inch wheels. There is no way there were going to make a monospec FR-S come with tiny 16 inch wheels!

Monday y'all!

Isn't the model year supposed to read 2013 instead of 2012?

YES. It is

With so much R&D spent on the 215/45/75 non-staggered tires, I doubt Scion is going to equip them with wider/heavier/more expensive tires.

I'm not an expert in tires, but I'd imagine changing the tires to a staggered setup will dramatically change the vehicle dynamics that are different than the 86's original intent.

I have a strong feeling that this was a typo.

Front suspension says STRUT instead of MACPHERSON® STRUT
