Due to the larger size, the Pro Race 1.3 is what is used in the pic. The Pro Race 1.2 is an excellent choice too.

That's tight... well done.

Those wheels would look fantastic on a gray BRZ.

Nothing is such a strong word to use here. Enkei had done a great job of making an inexpensive, light weight wheel. I just have a issue with their looks. To me, most of their line up is okay, but there are so many more wheels out there that look better. The other issue with there line up is if you want to get a different size than what the manufacturer puts on then they don't make them in the stock wheel pattern, you have to jump to 5X114.3, which for most people is okay, they they need to have more variety.

There are so many people on here worried about the weight of there wheels but remember you tires too. I was looking on tirerack.com the other day comparing all weather performance tires and there was a 8 lbs swing between some of them. You could loose a few lbs. there as well.

Nice wheel but here is my issue, directly from their website, "We are proud to declare their position of exclusive wheel supplier to the British Touring Car Championship at just 10.5kg with centre lock fixing and drive pegs." 10.5 kg! 23.14 lbs! It's unsure as too the actual weight since they mention 9.0 kg as well, but that's still 19.84 lbs. NO THANK YOU!

My Rota G-Force 18X9's were 21 lbs.

My Rota G-Force 18X9's were lighter than that.
See this page which has all of the sizes, PCD, and weights for the Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2.

Pro Race 1.2

I did just a quickie google search and came up with this:

http://www.racinglab.com/rota-g-force-wheel-004.html

http://www.ebay.com/itm/18X9-ROTA-G-...-/370458336349

Team Dynamics is able to supply a wide range of wheels within the size, offset, and PCD range listed, on an individual basis. Spec ordering a wheel set is easy. Want hubcentric wheels, no problem. Certain color offered, no problem. You don't need to find 3 or 5 other people just to get your set.

Not all wheels are the lightest, or the heaviest. Prices vary greatly. But very few manufacturers offer spec ordering of single sets, for cast wheels in this price range.

Look before you leap. Team Dynamics Pro Race line is very competitive.

And for fun, while yes TD is heavily involved as a manufacturer in the BTCC, after all all TD wheels are manufactured in the UK, and for years 2011 and 2012 TD is the sole supplier of forged wheels for the V8 Supercars, Pro Race wheels are also run in many racing series, by teams and individuals alike.

I realize this is an attempt for You to make money which is great, i just don't know how confrontation helps there. I'm not sure where they got there weight, but I weighted mine personally and they were 21 lbs. Not the greatest in quality in terms of balancing but I beat the shit out of my cars and I never had an issue.

So the question remains, an 18X8 Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 weights 19.84 lbs. when I checked to see the price it asked for a huge list of information. What would a set of four run for the GT86/FR-S/BRZ? It's a nice looking wheel. Even though I've never heard of it I may consider them if the price is reasonable, since I'm looking at 17 lb SSR's and 16 lb WedsSports
