Nice! Do you have a whole shot of your car with that set up?

I'd love to see it.

@agent47 Awesome! Are those on any modded suspension (springs, coilovers, etc) or just all stock? If it's stock, it looks good!

Reason why I ask is because i'm getting 225s mounted on tomorrow morning and i'm curious as to how it will look on stock suspension.

Those were with swift springs installed. Here's what they looked like at stock height.

Looks good with the springs, not much of a fan of the original ride height, so personally I would go 18's but this looks great!

Yea I think it's perfect how it sits now, I didn't like it at stock ride height.

Don't have any pix at the moment. I stayed with stock size, 215/45/17 on stock wheels in hopes that they will allow me to continue to use the FRS as a DD through Maryland Winters. They appear to have a wider profile when viewed from behind the car.

The A/S 3's are very different in feel from the HP's. It's too early to offer an informed review, but in the cold rain yesterday they showed their grip, in spades. They may be a tad less fuel efficient, but again, I need more time with them to know for sure.

Interesting that the stock tire size seem to have a wider profile. I wonder what the 225s will look like!

Currently in the shop!

Update:

She finally got her new shoes.

Added the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3's (225/45/17) on stock suspension.

Very nice and handles really well. It's raining here right now, but I can't wait to have them tested out in the sunny dry weather.
