AME Tracer TM-02

Back in January I called up Touge Factory wondering if it was possible to get a custom set of AME Tracer's made for my FRS in a more aggressive sizing than was listed from AME. I was eyeing the 18x9.5 +22 size, but it was only available in 5x114.3....

Fast forward 6 months and I can present to you the first set of AME Tracer TM-02 in 18x9.5 +22 5x100.

In the time it took for the wheels to come in the car has also received a full Arlon Automotive Midnight Desert Sand Metallic vinyl wrap with embossed army stars on the doors and hood courtesy of Express Auto Salon in Kenner, LA. I also contacted Bolt Boys/DownStar to see if they would be willing to make me a custom set of spike lug nuts for the FRS/BRZ thread pitch. As luck would have it they had a promotional set lying around that wasn't going to be used.

Making this wheel/tire/lug set up a true first and one of a kind look for the FRS/BRZ. Enjoy the pictures.

Those AME wheels look fantastic! For a while I really wanted to figure out how to get the AME FS-01 on my FR-S.

Glad to see you didn't settle and got the wheel you really wanted. Awesome!
