This is a photoshop but 17" meister's on a BRZ. Looks pretty solid. I'm an 18" fan but it still works. I'm curious how that -6 is going to look without fenders ha

Yea so I'm curious haven't seen an answer! Are you rocking flares or just going stock body?

Power to you if you want this look (18x11 on stock body lol). Personally I want the mesiters super bad, they will be a big purchase for me in the future look fantastic on the BRZ, but I'll probably go like 18x9.5 + 30 or so

Just stock body. Yes, that's my friend's brz. Most people that are into the stance/slam culture run 18's and 19's on our cars. I want to run 17's and see how they end up turning out. I just shaved my rear fenders, so hopefully with my gt spec lca's extended to the max, it'll be enough negative camber. Otherwise I'll have to hold off and get some custom upper control arms made before I put these wheels on. It should clear though. I did a lot of research and homework before I ordered these wheels. I'm going into uncharted territories so hopefully my theories are correct and everything goes smoothly next week when this happens

Did a test fit today with the stock lca's. Sits only 1" poke. The gt spec lca's i have are 4 1/2 inches longer than the stock lca's so hopefully that will be enough camber to tuck when the car bottoms out. Crossed fingers!

So turns out I need to buy rear upper control arms and rear toe links to get the camber I need for the rear. But the fronts are sitting pretty much where I want it to sit. Maybe a little lower.
