In reality I really like the split colour of the stock rims for the bright colours as it gives the best of both worlds.
I've grown to not dislike the OEM wheels. But, I would like something that weighs less and is different from the base FRS wheel. Maybe RPF1s????

How often do you call the dealership to check in? Did you put a deposit on it? I called them at least once a week before I got mine. It took a while for me to get it.

I call them about once a week, and he showed me its status at the port. The "Port Processing" had an estimated date of completion on 10/22/2014. Still, the actual date is still not filled in. The car is still stuck there.

At this rate the 16s may be out before you get yours!
and I thought the two days I had to wait for the dealer to prep mine was unreasonable.

I'm not sure if you're in Los Angeles or Louisiana, but I just read an article about how the ports on the West Coast have slowed considerably in the unloading/moving of cargo out of the shipyards due to the ongoing labor disputes that have become much worse in the last couple of weeks.

I hope you get your car soon...

Is gas monkey really your go to for that? I don't mean any disrespect but I would think a place like that would not only be inexperienced with our platform, but I kinda feel like they would charge out the a$$ just because of the name. I dunno please correct me if I'm wrong
